The two main issues I see are:

  • In any kind of anarchist system, the need for financial capital is replaced by a need for social capital. It’s easy to tell people “jUsT go TaLk To YoUr NeIgHbOrS” and hard for many people to do. There should be room in society still for people who don’t feel like talking

  • Locally grown and unprocessed foods with unpredictable taste and texture

If you see any more problems or solutions then you can comment them below

EDIT: I tried to delete this post but I don’t really know how. I deleted it but it still shows up. Sry for the bad post

EDIT 2: I guess I will undelete if it’s going to show up on the feed either way

  • Good question OP. I never thought of this and I’m enjoying the answers.

    Briefly, my own answer would be: I would hope and expect that we can still communicate when essential using technology.

    Food textures are a problem for me. I’d expect a solar punk society to prioritise not being ableist (and minorities should be elevated too).So just as I can go to my local market now and get diced food marinated in a sauce I like, I’d expect that to continue as a service.

    The solar punk part might be how it’s done (emissions etc) and who gets paid. But I expect niceties such as our food prefs to still be available.
