Why Anarchy doesn’t work lol
Good quick skit about how Anarchists will always be fighting some form of authority and how it will never pan out the way they want it to.
They really nail the supply chain / division of labor being impossible in anarchism in this bit. A doctor isn't gonna be able to fix lou gehrigs disease without a whole industry of pharmacological research and medical equipment behind them.
Medicine in general would be impossible. How would anarchists ever expect to produce a multitude of life saving medicines that require million dollar lab equipment in massive laboratory complexes. All manned by doctors and specialists that require decades of education and training, that control processes where even a single wayward mistake can be lethal to tens of thousands of people.
This isn't even considering new medicines. How would you ever develop, test, and perfect new treatments without massive governing bodies? Like is a random guy named Joe supposed to cook up a cure for pancreatic cancer in his basement with a middle school science lab kit?
Society has benefited immensely from specialisation. It makes no sense to throw all of that by the wayside for some weird concept of self sufficiency. Society should just not be built to benefit the elites. It’s just physically impossible for an individual to create any innovation today without so many others helping
