      Nature and Freedom, *while sometimes allies*, are not the same thing and will inherently have contexts or moments where they conflict. This is the tension Bookchin tried desperately to pretend didn't exist. But it does. Anarchists must have the stomach to embrace freedom.pic.twitter.com/ikcZr9q8RX

      This is not to say that there isn't an instrumental dependence between eg the continuation of all known consciousness and some ecological respect, but that is a particular relationship, not an equality. Similarly mutual aid is game theoretically emergent, not absolute nature.

      The emergence of mutual aid in social and biological contexts as both cognitive strategy and evolved instinct is statistical, it has exceptions. It's a (popular) bastardization of Kropotkin to leap to assume what is natural is thus anarchistic. Anarchism can conflict with nature.

      Folks want to paper over this to preserve the social and ideological coalitions of the left. But you can't equate ecology and freedom, they're not the same thing. One has to be valued more than the other and win out when the two actually do conflict.

      This doesn't mean blithely destroying our support networks or ignoring the computational challenges of predicting the externalities of our actions. But if you want to default on what is natural rather than what spreads freedom for all when the two conflict, you're a reactionary.

      Yudkowsky's example of the insects bred for altruism that ate their children instead is instructive and if it can be generalized it is also damning. Do you have a response ready to go if it does generalize? Or does the war against God become a kind of post-biological lysenkoism?

          I don't know what you mean by "generalize" here. It seems absurd to claim that there will be maximally counter-productive unforseen externalities in literally every instance of introducing a change or an effect.

          If your goal is perfect liberty then any unforseen externalities are unacceptable. There is no stopping point. At what time do you start assessing trade offs if your commitment is literally infinite?
