I think the most important factor when it comes to that issue is free association and, like you said, decentralization. Ideally we would see coordination rather than hierarchy; no one has to be in charge- there are simply roles that get filled. There are even guides online
It's my understanding that the US military is as capable as they are on the battlefield largely due to the autonomy each individual unit is granted.
This is where things start to get out of my wheelhouse though, but it seems to me that if enough people want this kind of change, we could make it happen by enough individuals simply pitching in
Wow, thanks for the suggestion, I'll takea read. By the way, when hyperlinking external websites on lemmy, add https:// before the website address so Lemmy knows to redirect to what only is contained within the hyperlink markdown, otherwise it'll hyperlink relative links (e.g. we're on a post so lemmy instance address/post/your relative link, if you were doing it on a community sidebar it'd be on /c/ directory so it'd go to /c/your link - also reminder that redirecting communities from communities sidebar will just double /c/ since it just appends your hyperlink)
In this case: (https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/andrew-flood-a-practical-guide-to-anarchist-organisation) instead of (theanarchistlibrary.org/library/andrew-flood-a-practical-guide-to-anarchist-organisation)
I didn't know that about the US Military, that is astonishing to know.
The Anarchist Library is awesome- they have so much great content
Ah cool, thanks for the tip!
