    The nice thing is in an anarchist society you could do just that, and no one would stop you

    I’d personally prefer to be surrounded by people

      Which is why I’m an anarchist. Pretty much every other system would force me to attempt to be happy in an apartment block, or waste huge amounts of resources creating suburbs that are still too goddamn crowded for me

        I would like to share your attitude but fear the consequences when millions seek a place in the wilderness. What do you do when you arrive and your neighbor asks you to move on because he wants to be more alone?

          I want to be more alone too, so I’d probably not get to the point where I was close enough to have them tell me to go away.

          However, most people probably wouldn’t like the actual wilderness. They want a big country house somewhere and when they find out they need to build it themselves they’ll go back to the apartment blocks.

          One reason I’m a fan of making cities less objectively terrible is that more people will live in them and be even further away from my hovel.

      surrounded by people

      I would literally prefer to put myself in a human sized toaster than live amongst people.
