I think that showing the basic tenets of ancaps and ancoms really helps to see that there is not a false dichotomy, and that that anabs is a lovely reality to enact. So thank you for this! It also helped me to see the whole robot aspect in a different light.

I cook wholesome food for my family and friends instead of relying on packaged "food" that is essentially garbage (well, I do allow about 10% for "healthier" packaged snacks!).

I am a musician/singer-songwriter, and I make and teach music.

I write to help others open their eyes to the actual state of our world so they can make better decisions on where to exert their energy and place their focus.

There is a common aspect between these two seemingly different ideologies (Anarcho Capitalism versus Anarcho communism). A rational worldview. And we cannot ignore the horrors perpetuated in the name of that "worldview" by capitalism and by communism in the past.

While one should be wary of "...being a communist" on the other hand we can also explore to see what all the said system involves, instead of what all it claims. There is a visible wave of pro-communism, much like green colored energy, circular economy etc, at a time when the given world order (capitalism and imperialism) is falling apart, slowly but surely.

As for the "wealth" part, we can also view the host planet as a fixed entity. Fixed in size and capacity to provide. Once beyond that limit, the top species is screwed. The higher the domination, the bigger the fall. Hence, whatever system of governance, the question above that, is about scale. Is it good for 100, 1000, 10,000? Till what limit?

I really appreciate that you can encapsulate so many aspects of our much troubled society. To me, it appears you search for a way out, or for new meanings. Best to you Amaterasu!
