Help! Help! I’m being repressed!
Just because I have to begin the new year with something that amuses me:
Now, I keep having these idiots show up and spout their holy truths at me, and they just can”t leave it alone.
So I’m here to explain, for the very last time, (unless of course Dick wades in again for the pure fun of it) that Anarchy is bad.
The brief clip above demonstrates one of the many truths of Anarchy, and that is that if you do manage to establish a successful anarchical society, it is utterly vulnerable to anyone who shows up who is armed.
That aside, the truth of human nature (as Mel Byrne puts so eloquently here) is that “the world is chaotic and shit happens”
As I see it, there are several ways to approach Anarchism.
1: You are a sheep, and you solemnly believe that everything will be alright. This is, of course sheer ignorance.
2: You are an evil bastard, and once all the protections of normal government fail, you can swoop in and be the leader of your own colony of sycophants. This is the category Billy Buttboy and his denizens fall into- they think without the Evil Government fucking everything up, they will rise to the positions of power they feel thry truly deserve. What they don’t realise is that one strong guy will hold them down while another breaks out their front teeth with pliers so they can service the randier population.
3: you are a communist or socialist that is using this feelgood crap to break people down to the point where they wil gladly accept communism or socialism.
4: You haven’t a clue what real human nature is like.
The truth is, there can never be a true anarchist or objectivist society which works, because objectivism and anarchy are tools that can be used for the strong to subjugate the weak. And those who espouse Anarchy know this.
Are there anarchist principles worth following? Sure! In everything there can be a little wisdom. I’m all about treating your neighbor well, I’m all about trying to make a difference in the world. I also know that the representative republic we live in has excellent tools to improve all our lives. It has been damaged, and corupted, and in most cases, it has been damaged and corrupted by those who feel their system is better and are messing with the system to try to migrate away from a system that can work to a system that never will.
There is no situation in an anarchical society that is not utterly vulnerable to the first person who comes along wiht superior firepower. When you set up your perfect society in (name your favorite spot here) be damned sure your women are ugly and mean spirited, your resources are poor, your location remote and inhospitable, your climate sheer misery. Because if there is anything you have that someone else considers valuable, they will be along to collect it very soon. And you will be powerless to stop them, just like Dennis was to prevent King Arthur from putting a knee in.
Now stop the bullshit. You’re wrong, and you’re too stupid to know it, or too evil to be coming around here.

Come on girls. I’m waiting to hear your wealth of genius.
“When you set up your perfect society in (name your favorite spot here) be damned sure your women are ugly and mean spirited, your resources are poor, your location remote and inhospitable, your climate sheer misery.”
Hmmm… sounds like Iceland a few centuries back…
Wow, I wonder how THAT worked out.
The perfection of Anarchy is already well displayed in the Animal Kingdom, how can mere mortals ever improve on that?
Yep. Now you gotta decide if you’re prey or predator, because everything is prey or predator.
“Wow, I wonder how THAT worked out. ”
The beach-combers and surfer dudes had peace for a short time (you know – that wiki link…) because they were on a volcanic rock that nobobdy wanted.
I think a gang of unruly girl scouts came and destroyed their beautiful anarchy due to their l33t skillz.
But I could be wrong.
ROFLMAO!!!
One of my favorite scenes from one of my favorite movies.
Of course I have another favorite movie.
“Well, I just laid down my guns and walked away…Little bastard shot me in the ass!”
Which of course has nothing to do with anarchy, unless it does.
Anarchy sounds good in theory, but doesn’t work in the real world. It is just what goes on in between changes in government.
Children are such beautiful and innocent, kill Piggy!
Ah yes the perfect anarchy of nature.
I’ve seen nature and animals don’t die of old age. I’ve actually seen a possum grinning out of a dead cows ass.
I predict that the relative soft penalties for trolls, spammers, and others of their ilk is coming to an end. Especially if the economy goes as deep into the bag as I expect.
Just read a book based on an alternate universe kind of thing. in the book they rounded all those kinds of people up ( ones who thing the whole touchy feely world view works) and put them in their own country. Told the people in the country the name meant chosen people. Name really mean banished people. Warning on the only entrance to the valley read beware- these people cannot see evil.
Worked for them until evil showed up and they gave up all there women to the evil ones.
Interesting book, but I think I could have told the story in a few less pages.
If you make all things equal you cannot tell good from evil as all behavior is equal. That is the anarchy crowds problem. They cannot see evil.
Larry Niven wrote an excellent short story about this very point. I forget the title.
