Sure Kyrsten Sinema once defended the black bloc before turning heel and becoming a Senator... but I just read a beloved activist who got legit famous defending the black bloc write that they *only* oppose borders in our present capitalist/racist/etc context, not fundamentally.

I am big mad about this shit. Saying you only happen to presently align against borders rather than abstractly is no different that the marxists who go on about how "acab" and "prison abolition" only apply in our present society or historical context, not under their rule.

Replying to @rechelon
What if "borders" were redefined not as territory over which an authority had sovereignty but as ranges in which different logistical systems of distribution are functional and maximize economic welfare with minimum redundancy and waste.

Well, that won't be up to any government to produce. If they were natural boarders as in people are happy to stay were they are but free to cross that is different. Lets say I was born in Gaza, I don't feel the need to leave as I love it there. That is a natural boarder.

Well I mean, as a former ancap I'm more interested in what happens to questions of force once borders are merely an extension of economic reality and force applying entities are embedded in economics, but maybe that's not a coherent framing to an anarchist. Something around there
