      So basically mob-justice.

      Because witch hunts have never gone wrong and were always justified.

      “This man loves other men, that’s weird, let’s kill him.” - apparently no one ever

        “justice is not handed down from above and is therefore unfair” < words of the utterly deranged

          You mean the process, that is democratically decided by elections with a bunch of checks and balances in the process?

            Just lol. Is that why there’s billionaires hoarding all the wealth while billions starve? Is that why Palestine is being genocided? Is that why we’re headed full-steam for a climate apocalypse?

            There’s no “democracy” nor “checks and balances”. There’s only a sad farce.

        Which would you rather? One king/governed/whoever that says being gay is bad, or a majority of the population that says being gay is bad?

        At least in the second example, you have >50% of the population being happy. And more likely >80% would be happy otherwise you’d just have the 49% fight back and make life miserable for everyone.

          If you had 50% saying stuff like that, you wouldn’t even have an anarchist society anyway.
