‘All Twitter Users Become Birds’. Because, you know, posting on Twitter is called tweeting (which birds do).

[Awkward silence]...I’ll see myself out now.

Well that would be Twitter by the Numbers: Stats, Demographics & Fun Facts a total of 330 million monthly active users who are now, what type of birds Zyobot.

Lets make it fun and make them super killer Emus so we can have a global Emu War.

Uh-huh...

Why do I now get the feeling that this little modification would result in worldwide disaster?

Well what bird would you turn me, and millions of other people in.

A Dodo ore the Cassowary, the most dangerous bird in the world.

Well, if it's a choice between those two, then probably the Dodo. But if I get to choose from the whole range of birds, how about a bunch of finches?

What if people who fart get airborne for as long as the fart last.

a small jump to get the feet of the ground.

Alright, good, so no sipping around like a balloon with gas rushing out of it or shooting up into the sky like some untrained Superman.

Though, I wonder if you’d have to amend human biology or the biochemistry within human digestive systems somewhat to make fart-induced hovering happen.

Well that is the strnagest part, nothing has change, so evrybody will wonder how the heck does this happen, also fart games on who can fart the longest and thus fly the farthest will surly begin.

Uh-huh. I’m guessing that teachers will have to discipline kids who engage in fart games during school, which ought to be fun in its own right.

Also people will now know when other people fart.

True. It’ll be embarrassing at first, but people will become desensitized after a while. As such, I’d expect social etiquette to change somewhat as it relates to farting.

Would the Anarcho-Capitalist be the lesser of two evils.

It probably depends on the exact candidates, but I’d imagine that—as fringe-y as their positions and platform may be—they’re still more in line with American values and traditions than the anarcho-communist’s desire to abolish private property and trade. And frankly, I don’t see how you can facilitate a society based on full economic equality and common ownership of the means of production without some sort of central authority to ensure that (which anarchism is against by definition). We can argue as to whether it’s “real anarchism” or not, but that’s a separate debate from whether it’s workable in practice or not. And that, I have my large share of doubts about, as would the American people once they hear objections.

The anarcho-capitalist, on the other hand, would still want to keep economic freedom and leave choices up to people without the government to play referee. There’s the concern that so-called Ancapistan would resemble a Gilded Age and some cyberpunk dystopia like Snow Crash, but I think it’d make a whole lot more sense in practice than trying to reconcile political decentralization and common ownership like anarcho-communism does. Plus, the idea of the non-aggression principle (or NAP) might sound decent to people at least in theory, as opposed to abolishing just about every aspect of their economic and political life compared to “only” much of it by ending the government.
