Anarchism

Re: Anarchism

I rather suspect that if your anarchy was composed only of people who understood just what it was they were agreeing to, that the turnover rate would be much lower.

Then it would be a small group of highly trusting people who would eventually attack each other and only one would come out on top and turn into a dictatorship.

It's kind of funny how people can stand the fact that there might be one god who can have all this authority like a king and yet no one values an anarchy by a mortal.

*sigh* As I said earlier...actually I'll just quote it again:

If a bunch of people decide to elect some leader and put that leader in charge of themselves, it isn't a case of them being too stupid to work an anarchy, it is a matter of them making the free anarchistic decision to leave the system and form their own.

As soon as you act outside accordance with the system, you are no longer part of the system. It's actually very easy and straightforward: If you try to attack the others and set yourself up as a dictator, you have STOPPED TAKING PART IN THE ANARCHY, and having removed yourself from it, are now invading and trying to take it over and make it a dictactorship.

Um...anarchy and an all-powerful authority holding God are completely incompatible. The whole point of anarchy as a system is the lack of central authority.
