I can understand the sentiment, since by the same token that it can help protect the people, it can also help separatists arm themselves.
Well I'm pretty sure Anarchy itself is much more complicated than simply abolishing the government, the premise of it is partly to abolish all unjustified hierarchies, this doesn't necessarily mean to abolish all structures, after utility services like water, electricity, communication services, etcétera are still needed especially if you want to provide people with a good quality of life, so we don't want to abolish the distribution systems, we want to restructure them, in reality Anarchy has a lot in common with Marxism, it's just that communism states that a temporary government is necessary while we achieve stability in our society, as a transitional phase if you will, it is supposedly the goal to achieve a point where government is no longer needed, so we're skipping that and going directly for a decentralised completely horizontal form of government where decisions are made by the people rather than elected officials, now information about the EZLN is a bit more limited than I would like, but it is my understanding that this is supposedly their form of governance and how they decide to use these services, therefore technically the structure of Zapatism shares more in common with Libertarian Socialism (Considered to be a form of Anarchy) than it does with Communist Leninism, however since the Neozapatist movement did start as a Communist Leninist movement it could be argued to be Communism instead, since it does still share a lot of ideology with that movement.
That being said I will admit that it is entirely possible I'm wrong about this, I do want to research it further and I want to see if it would be possible to travel there and interview people, since I don't really have anything better to do with my life anyway, it's unlikely that would happen soon though.
...is this just a game of football to you? Do you not actually have any kind of stake in the outcomes of elections?
Because one party is trying to annul my uncle's marriage and claim the right for employers and landlords to discriminate against my friends.
No shit I'm gonna cut ties with people who think that's an okay thing to do
Because our world is stupid, that is actually the compromise position:

Of course it's not like football to me.
Football is far more serious business.
Do I have a stake? yes watching the Democrat party hopefully finally learn their damn lessons this time fully not just the "Stop attacking your own supporters" bit but also the "Don't cave to corporate interests and try to rig your damn candidate selection" part.
One party was supposedly trying to annul your Uncle's marriage in 2016 and despite having far more control at the time they didn't do it, so why would it be different this time?
Don't fall for the BS scare tactics etc
I mean come on this whole this narrative of now gay republicans was being called out to an extent in 2013 by American Dad
...3 more seats on the Supreme Court, that's what's fucking changed. Pay attention
I dunno what fantasy-Macfarlane-land you live in, but in the real world these fuckers don't stop trying
You get there's plenty of likely other ways it could and would be stopped right?
It just not being brought up in the first place.
Most states choosing to make their own laws if it's repealed.
‘Army for Trump’ preps poll-watching operation, raising concerns
Some voting rights activists are concerned such encounters could escalate tensions among voters.
Walk in with a Trump sweater, vote, walk out and turn around, ripping up your sweater WWE style, showing a Biden t-shirt underneath.
You'll be glad you did, if and when you wake up in the ICU, cuz that shit was epic and so cash money! /s
This is utterly meaningless, and I shouldn't really need to explain why.
Even if Biden didn't move an inch on healthcare, Trump has stated his intention to repeal the ACA. There's a reason a lot of Biden's campaign imagery has focused on people with pre-existing health conditions.
It can also help every Tom, Dick and Harry get a gun.
As it's been hitherto understood, all structures-- such as necessary utilities and industries-- would be run in some communal, non-hierarchical fashion, such as by a local worker-formed syndicate. Having a government structure run it is antithetical.
If you're envisaging a government running these utilities and industries (even if it's a very egalitarian government or one with very high worker representation, or entirely formed by workers) then you're envisaging some form of radical socialism, not anarchy/anarchism.
Did anyone catch the Trump/Pence ad that “quoted” Dr. Anthony Fauci in support of Trump’s response to the pandemic? I know disingenuousness in political ads is nothing new, but this was such an egregiously “Trump” move; they didn’t even bother to hide the fact that the quote was very selective in its wording. With a big picture of Fauci, it reads along the bottom something to the effect: ”I don’t think… anyone could have done more.” It had the “dot-dot-dot” and everything. It also had Fauci’s voice over, but there’s a noticeable hiccup between the words “think” and “anyone.” I’m almost certain that “dot-dot-dot” held Fauci’s true sentiments; I’m also fairly certain they weren’t defending the Trump administration’s handling of the pandemic. Trump has routinely drug Fauci through the mud, contradicting him every step of the way; how spiteful can you be to skew a man’s words to relay the opposite of his intended message?.
Do you really have to ask that about this man?

Looks around my living room.. There are no less than 3 Cashew nuts cans in my house.. I actually LIKE cashews. What is wrong with him for not liking cashews?! Now I also have almonds, pecans and walnuts here too, but I buy all my nuts individually so I get exactly what I want rather than complain about what nuts they put in a mixed nuts can. XD
Yea Fauci isn't appreciating having that done at all here.
