Back to AtD. the ideal timelessness of common sense

[Mark Kohut]

Nice little metaphysical joke on p. 933 at the Anarchist spa.
 
"How do you plan things?" Yashmeen was curious to know, "assign duties?
Coordinate your efforts, that sort of thing?" 
"By knowing what has to be done. Which is usually obvious common sense."
"Sounds like John McTaggart Ellis McTaggart all over again," she muttered.
 
Check out McTAggart if interested in wikipedia. But for one glossing purpose
I offer two details about him. A British "idealist" who is famous for complexly
arguing that Time does not exist (although eternity does).
 
I'll laugh at this AtD joke using the common sensical understanding of "idealism"--
anarchism as an ideal.....and that "common sense"-- knowing what to do in a self-organizing
community---is in some human sense timeless.....is with our origins........
 
is part of the meaning of Yashmeen's witticism and part of TRP's vision, I suggest
 
 
P.S. a theoretical anarchist was once asked who would pick up the 
garbage in his ideal world.   
 
"Anyone and they would be called garbagemen", he answered.
