There are no anarchists on this board I assure you.
Haha, that's funny.
I've started a huge thread (6 pages OP) on Anrchism
here.
It's not a very popular thread, because I actually take the time to explain what I feel is at the core of anarchist thought, and I guess it scared
the naysayers off cause it's very easy to point out the ignorance in statements like:
it's not yet practical
We need order as half the population of the world are followers. Without leader ship, it would be like Somalia. Even tribes have leaders. I think
Anarchy is stupid. But thats my opinion lol.
if you think Anarchism is cool or really want to try it out. Move to Mogadishu or the Darfur region or somewhere else.
Right, it's a matter of the "I want more" attitude that is inherent in humans that makes this system, and all others really, fail.
Anarchy is a piss-pore, lazy mode of adressing societal woes.
anarchy is just plain stupid with humans the way they are.
with the violence we see in big cities today some would argue it's already here.
When it comes to Anarchism, "Deny Ignorance" goes straight out the window for many if not most members on ATS.
So yeah, there are anarchists on this board. Does this mean they are terrorists?
No, not even close. Speaking for myself, I believe in non-violence, until self-defense comes into the picture.
The reason why there is no anarchism on this planet is because of that: anarchists don't assassinate, commit genocide, etc. etc. like the ruling
elites do.
We have moral, ethical and material restraints. They don't.
