Yeah, I remember, when I used to live in Texas, there was this "libertarian party" that had nothing to do with liber- but just ultra right religious jerks sucking for the Trump party.

And there was some "tea party" guys that were into libertarianism at the time, but really were Trump supporters essentially, just more sensible otherwise. The situation was unmeasurably stupid, considering how the whole idea of the US was about libertarianism and no movement really promoted its ideas, just "let's regulate something else and make each others lives more miserable" things.

But then I'm pretty sure this theft of libertarianism is effective only in the US.

The page on anarcho-capitalism gives better credit to this problem:

Anarcho-capitalism developed from Austrian School-neoliberalism and individualist anarchism.[33][34][35][36][37][38][39] Almost all anarchist movements do not consider anarcho-capitalism to be anarchist because it lacks the historically central anti-capitalist emphasis of anarchism. They also argue that anarchism is incompatible with capitalist structures.[40][41][42][43][44][45] According to several scholars, Anarcho-capitalism lies outside the tradition of the vast majority of anarchist schools of thought and is more closely affiliated with capitalism, right-libertarianism and neoliberalism.[40][46][47][48][49][50] Traditionally, anarchists oppose and reject capitalism, and consider "anarcho-capitalism" to be a contradiction in terms,[51][52][53] although anarcho-capitalists and some right-libertarians consider anarcho-capitalism to be a form of anarchism.[54][55][56][57]

Apparently, it's hot potato in academics; and it's just stupid, for it's an argument about definition. Call it Susan if you like it, just define it. And clearly, "anacrchism" as general term is not exactly friendly term then. People've got to be more specific to be understood correctly.

There are many flavours of anarchy. And no objectively wrong ways of presenting it - what are we going to do, regulate lol?

I think it would be more sensible to name your flavor of anarchy correctly, instead of using umbrella term and then pull one subset to fill it while expelling others. Yes, ancaps are just like you described. Some people want cyberpank dystopia. Some people want chuche. Sume people are just jerks and dumbass.

No idea who the fuck is that dude you talk about tbh.

Yeah, I'm trying the store idea, looking into collab with a bar or a restoraunt, or a brewery. No luck so far, maybe I'll just open my own bar someday.

Thanks for suggestions!

Yeah, I've been promoting stuff in Fediverse and through local brewers stores (which are not exactly doing well themselves). I can't just go ahead and advertise something related to alcohol, apparently it's one of the most popular downfalls of new hipster breweries - illegal advertising. And I do not want to promote stuff through Meta and X and Linkedin. Thus I expected some network effect - but so far clearly things are quite bad.

If you are still looking for yeast, please welcome to my webstore store.zymologia.fi or DM, I have more under the bench.

These guys had more than that. I shopped there about once a year, the shirts did last - on children, this is unusual - and they just look awesome, he wears those to competition music concerts, just kid's t-shirts, and they look totally appropriately stylish.

I'm not even talking here about why my stuff in unique and best lol.

In Siberia land use rules are quite harsh, they are just enforced by criminals, not government (which is criminal too pretty much). Do not recommend.

You were right! They do indeed make filters in EU from EU produced fabric! And they were kind enough to offer me a roll to buy, but by that time I ran out of cash. I hope I'll recover soon and go ahead and give it a test.

Hey you know what, it's their fault! If they do not want to be touched, they shouldn't come to work looking this cute and fluffy!

I know which colony, I have this one where they killed their queen 2 or 3 times in last couple years. We as a species can learn a lot from bees indeed.

[–] alzymologist@sopuli.xyz 7 points 1 month ago (5 children)

Why would I want to stop touching my bees?

And, furthermore, large potential market for less-than-masterpiece artisanal is in DIY. But kitchen knives are occupational hazard if they are crappy. Needless to say, there is an artisan smith in my village, so who cares for brands.
