The word your looking for is Free Association. And yes you are right, it is a key part of anarchism and you are mostly right. I do think moderation isnt being handled in a very anarchist manner, but the ideas of free association are still at play here.

Because Lefty Memes is filled with liberals that think they're left wing

Groups within the school (however they want to organize themselves) could elect delegates (basically messengers) to reach decisions. That is how Europe developed its continental railway system (Kropotkin talks about it in Conquest of Bread). Its also a situation of let them figure out how they want to organize. I don't think people not involved in the school should be deciding how a school is run. People should be free to organize themselves through voluntary association, not have decisions forced on them. Its about consent, and I can tell you right now, teachers typically do not like school boards.

Do you need every teacher, student, and support staff to decide on every budget item? No. There are ways of organizing large groups without electing boards and representatives. I won't deny schooling would need to be restructured, but I think school needs restructuring anyways.

Abolish school boards. Schools should be managed by the teachers, students, and support staff.

Voting hasn't had a good record at stopping fascism fyi

You mean the SPD that used the Freikorps to crush the communist Spartacus League? The Freikorps that went on to aid Hitler in his rise to power? The SPD who prevented a communist revolution that could have prevented the rise of fascism in the first place? That SPD?

Heres the thing. Landlords buy up housing, this shrinks the market, this increases housing prices, this creates a demand for new homes, this increases demand for supplies and the price of labor for construction.

Landlords obviously don't want higher construction costs, but they do want more properties. Higher construction cost is a consequence of that, not the goal.

Houses wouldnt be so expensive if it werent for landlords

The things is, its expensive because of landlords and shit like airbnd. They have shrunk the market which increases the value of whats left in the market. Landlords are the reason why housing is unaffordable. Which puts you at their doorstep to rent from them.

I have the Samsung XCover 6 pro. Solely because it has replaceable batteries. Kinda a bad camera but I dont take a lot of photos so it doesnt matter to me.
