What is the Goal of a Society?

minimizing the suffering of its citizens imo

>>2593372
There is none, but people arbitrarily assign a goal to either their or all societies for ideological purposes.

To create a relatively safe environment within which great thinkers and workers can thrive for the betterment of humanity as a whole. Think of it as a fisherman casting his net into the ocean, gathering the anchovies as well as the Tuna

Die statist scum. This leads to the citizens and their world being managed like livestock and pasture, just look at American public education for example.

Society shouldn't have a purpose, it should just have liberty and 1 rule, do whatever you want as long as it doesn't hurt the world or any other individual in the process. It's just networks, social networks don't contemplate value, that can only happen on the level of organismal life.

There is a different between society and a governed state. You can have one without the other.

Maintaining itself

> Muh liberty

Harming yourself harms society unless you live alone on an island with no friends or family. The fact that humans exist for the sake of society is proven by the herd instinct of humanity. We cannot cultivate a virtuous society by encouraging the pursuit of material goods and growth for its own sake

Herds didn't evolve to have shepherds.

Wew lad

are you retarded? pls provide a single example of a functioning developed/advanced society that can function without some measure of state control.

>>2595638
Yes it is because libertarianism encourages pride and greed, with the accumulation of wealth being the end goal. Harming yourself also harms society, particularly your family. A culture and spirituality that strives for a greater goal and has reverence for tradition and your ancestors is necessary for civilization
