Thank you for making this video. I've been delving into the different aspects of anarchist thinking a lot lately. Having been a minarchist libertarian for a number of years. In time I became disillusioned with politics as a whole. I do find Mutualism interesting as well as Market Anarchism. Some of the same thinkers influenced Murray Rothbard whose book Anatomy of the State led me to reject the concept of the state and authority outside the individual.

Thanks you so much, I have been struggling with finding good sources on Mutualism and I think these works will give me enough of a understanding to work from there

I’m a Mutualist and Libertarian Impossibilist, which is probably gonna get me dragged in front of a wall and shot, but I do believe that a Mutualist political party could work

I understand that you are currently going through a rough time, what with college/university work and mental hardships, but if you ever have the chance to do so, could you try covering Benjamin R. Tucker and others like him, and Mutualism’s ties to Egoism, Individualist Anarchism, Individualist Libertarian Socialism, and Libertarian Market Socialism?

I guess I am referring to the man’s life, when he started his activist work, his affiliations and inspirations, some of his works, and his ideological contributions to Libertarianism, Minarchism, and Anarchism on an Egoist, Individualist, Socialist, and Free Market Anti-Capitalist level.
