How do you plan to scale that? Prefiguration sounds great for small already tight knit communities, however there are very few of those in the USA that aren’t complete chuds.
Do you have a plan for the drone swarms the people in power will send to wipe out your community? Living well isn’t a plan while you’re also surrounded by the enemy. Especially when the guy living next door isn’t gonna even listen to what you have to say because theyre so brainwashed by the powers that be.
Prefigurayion doesn’t mean “tight knit communities”. That tactic can be a refuge for some, but ultimately doesn’t work. Prefiguration means showing the people how mutual aid and solidarity can help everyone.
The US army won’t drone strike a community meal, or disaster relief events. And growing within communities, not as a separate bubble should be protection enough from bullets ever being shot.
Do you think any of the people who voluntarily joined the military are going to give a shit about anyone other than who is giving them orders? The military is already committing atrocities in plain view all over the world I’m sure will be fine following orders to drone strike a wedding in the USA if theyre told its a terrorist.
Regardless, my point is they won’t need to because the drones that will be doing this will be moatly automated.
What is your practical plan?
I literally just said it: Anarchist prefiguration

Why not? They do it in other counties.
Because the people conducting these drone strikes would be more closely connected to the community in the US.
These heinous acts were only possible by othering the “foreigners”.
We seem to be doing a fine job of “othering” each other right now.
Do you really believe that?

Yes, I do believe that, because it’s still people in the military and if it’, a big enough movement, they will have connections with those people.
Also, if the economy grinds to a halt, due to a general strike, they can bomb the workers all they want: it’s not gonna restart the economy.
Or I simply refuse to be such a nihilist. Ifwe can’t establish that, humanity is doomed. It’s literally “socialism or barbarism”.
I admiet I don’t have all the answers, because I don’t think you can have a perfect plan/vision of the future. I only know what I think is to be the best way to get us out of the massive mess we’re in. If you’re seriously interested a more thorough analysis, here’s a video. And here’s the script for the essay if you think youtube isn’t for serious people.
It’s called “magic”
