A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

More likely viewing. I'll update the previous post in a minute.
And I'll have to stress: it's specifically about anarcho-capitalism, with the explicit removal of any government. You'll keep hearing far-right conservatives insist that the best way to run the market is to keep the government out of it. Anarcho-capitalsim is that thing's platonic ideal, no need to wonder about the government being involved if there's no government involved.
As you'll see, at best that causes way more problems than a governed system causes. At worst, it creates a load of problems that a governed system prevents.
Thanks for the links!
