    Actually anarchy is not chaos or a state of everybody vs everybody. Anarchy is greek for without rulers. It is basically synonymous with democracy in it’s original sense.

    Anarchy is a organized(even industrialized and modern) society but without powers concentrated in the hands of a few. Anarchists like myself believe that power corrupts, and even if you joined government as an angle in due time you might fall to the temptation and divert the power granted you by the massed for your own ends, in turn betraying your mandate. I believe this to be the fatal flaw of both systems like USSR and the one we live in, both are state-capitalism.

    Anarchists believe that you cannot part with your freedom and then ever expect it back…

    God and state is a great book to interest you further or the conquest of bread there is also lucy gonzales parsons and others like proudhon.

    I hope you enjoyed this little write up and become an anarchist. 😘
