Personally im a Anarcho-Syndicalist so imo the system can be used. We can use economic sabotage, general strikes, and eventually take over the economy rather than burning it all down.
anarchy-syndicalist have always supported revolution and the complete overthrown of hierarchies its never been about slow incremental change within existing power structures.
This is a false dichotomy. You have to have a viable counter structure already built otherwise you are just making shit worse and hoping fascists don't take over.
Letting shit just collapse on purpose also will just foster resentment in like 2/3rds of the population toward people who let it happen or encouraged it to happen. Which seems to be MLs and leftwing foreign policy activists, at least here on Lemmy. I'm not going to join hands with someone that played an active or passive role in potentially ruining my life and my loved one's lives even if they're ideologically very similar otherwise.
Spite becomes more powerful than a desire for positive change in large groups of angry people.
Ehh it's about building a powerful international worker syndicate that can replace the state as painlessly as possible. So you're technically right, but your comment is misleading in the context of the one you responded to.
Ok that was just poorly worded, what I meant to say is that theres no point in burning it all down without a plan. The seeds of revolution are planted before it begins.
