Your rules are great, I agree you deserve some privileges when acting as DM because rod the effort you put in. My comment wasn't on that front.
But if you are enforcing the rules, and receiving different treatment because of them, you deserve that. But if you are win control of the space, you set the rules and you enforce them. You're a 'ruler' in that context. My point is, your anarchism isn't really at play here.
The system where the enforcement of rules is delegated to trusted person who everyone agrees on is closer to "Democracy".
Please don't take this the wrong way, but you should read some anarchist political theory if you want to address their actual beliefs.
This is exactly the kind of communal structure that anarchists advocate for: a voluntary collective where everyone agrees to contribute to furthering certain goals, values, and objectives.
OP is not coercing players to be in their game or to do things their way; they're saying "this is the game that I run, take it or leave it," and the players can join if they share the same goals.
Thank you
Don't forget to hydrate. Must be tired after all that mental gymnastics.
I could tell by your first comment that you didn't care to know about how others think.
Ignorance is a lot easier than educating yourself, so I can see why you'd choose the easy path; I'm just disappointed that you decided to be incurious instead of learning something.
But I'm sure your "highschool rebel" understanding of anarchism is truly accurate, thanks for the notes. Or you could explain what mental gymnastics I'm performing? This is all basic anarchist theory that you can confirm with a five minute read of a wikipedia article summary.
Lol you have zero ground to tell me my own table isn't anarchist. I've been doing this for a long time. Go on out of here. I gave you enough of my day.
Go read the Bread Book I linked you instead of wasting our time.
