The argument that I oversimplify things by arguing against 'representation' gets trumped by the simple fact that I mentioned how anarcho-syndicalism DOES need delegates, i.e. representatives of a specific collective/union.
However, this is not the type of representation you're talking about, is it? Challenging your own political beliefs is not a red herring when I first argued for anarchism and against your opinions on it, which was the first thing you quoted about me. Regarding your own political opinions, we still get the arbitrary, non-anarchist, traditional form of representative democracy (seriously, why THAT form of representational democracy that offers undeserved power to the few?) and the idea that a "mixed economy" is the "best" possible economy simply because it's a mix of two economic philosophies that are not compatible, nor are they the only existent ones.
