Social AInarchism

''Note: This ideology is part of a project by Erissky. The project can be found here.''

Social AInarchism is an Anarchist, Culturally far-left, and Economically Mixed ideology which promotes Complete Automation of the economy, along with social anarchist ways of life and ultrapogressive culture. It has been the major ideology in the city of Tenshima since the 2070’s

The economy is run by an automated AI, via complete automation and cybernetic economic planning. This system mass-produces various products, providing them for free to the inhabitants of the city while selling them to foreign powers, in order to support the good living conditions enjoyed by the residents of the city.

The cultural policy is very east asia-centric, with a multicultural open border policy towards Japan, China, and the Koreas. Its main goal is to systematically blend the native culture with the cultures of East Asia, in order to establish a truly "Accelerationist culture" that would ensure the city's place in the future.

Living standards are a priority, with work being abolished in favor of automation, currency is made obsolete as well with the sheer amount of products being produced. These products are stored in large warehouses staffed by AI. When somebody wishes to obtain something from one of these warehouses, they would simply place an order for the item and the quantity of it, and it would arrive as soon as possible, free of charge. Public transport is also a large priority. Cars are completely banned, due to their harmful environmental and social impact. In their place, public transport like buses, HSR, and metro are all free and efficient, supported by the economic planning systems. All basic necessities are also distributed regularly, including food, water, electricity, healthcare, housing, heating and air, and internet access.

It is arguable that the ideology is not actually anarchist, as the AI/Algorithms in charge of the economy do, in the end, dictate the direction of the city, especially given the conditions of a smart-city, where their reach extends pretty much everywhere. However, the hand these systems have is a lax one, and they (theoretically) don't have much of a reason to harm the population or overextend their power, purely for statistical reasons.
