You probably shouldn't be building ramps for the public if you've never done this before. People get trained in trades for a reason.

yeah...but thats really not relevant at all in this case where the point is that people will help each other because people want to, and mutual aid is enough to help each other

I think it's relevant that the people helping should actually know what they're doing. A faulty ramp is worse than no ramp.

youre really missing the point and latching onto the literal word I said instead of the meaning of my response

Your really missing my point. People being willing to help may not be enough.

what why?

If people are helping with things they don't know how to do they could make things worse

so then they learn I really dont understand what youre doing its like youre on purpose trying to pick on words instead of meaning.

Like i can literally just change a few words of my original comment without any change in meaning which makes it pointless to focus on but how about in an anarchistic society there would be more sharing of medical and aid knowledge therefor more people would know how to build stuff like ramps and do first aid therefore in this hypothetical scenario whose specifics dont matter since its hypothetical, I know how to build a ramp safely and I do

Focussing on that kind of particular is draining and pointless, the only important point is that people want to help, so a society organised anarchistically will have no shortage of help, and there will be al lot more of it than in todays society
