Question regarding behavior in modern society in c/anarchism@slrpnk.net

Read my post again. I'm not asking about the shining glorious utopia we're building. I'm asking about now.

Not much, but I am aware that some of it had to do with psychiatry.

Not really incarcerated, per se. And only a subset of the dangerous people.

If someone commits murder in a fit of rage and regrets it afterwards, they would not need any obligation or coercion to undergo psychiatric treatment.

I'm not talking about an anarchist society. I'm asking what we should do now, as anarchists in a statist society.

Because the alternatives are:

  • Prison

  • Execution

  • Exile, which offloads your problem to some other community

  • Letting someone who is a danger to themselves and others continue to be a danger

Question regarding behavior in modern society (sh.itjust.works)
 

We anarchists are generally averse to cooperating with the police, for very good reasons. However, as I understand it, at times the only real way to protect the community in the society we currently live in seems to be talking with the pigs.

Suppose you believe yourself to have evidence incriminating a serial killer. In an anarchistic society the serial killer could be sent to the psych ward and dealt with humanely. But what about the modern day? Do you turn over the evidence to the police?

This question has been bothering me for about 3 days now. It was provoked by learning about Aufhebengate. It made me wonder under what circumstances snitching is justifiable.
