Don't get me started.
The fundamental error in the above sentence is that you confused "Anarchy" with "Chaos". Anarchy does not represent a situation in which there are absolutely no rules in a society, everyone can do what they want and harm people at will. In fact, it's quite the opposite.
Check the ethymology of the word, read up on the CNT/FAI during the Spanish revolution, and then we'll talk.
Having read whatever I could find, I still cannot find, how anarchism can be better. No government does not mean equal rights, it would rather force the rule of the strongest.
On the other hand, if you ant to keep everyone equal, you'd have to somehow enforce equality - thus creating a group of people with power to enforce, giving them more rights than the other.
There will always be lust for power. And if given, nobody gives it up, and will do it to suit his taste.
Sidenote: I *really* don't find your "omigod-I'm-gonna-take-bus-and-beat-you" statement either abusive or threatening, just laughable.

Nigga puh-lease. That "statement" was a joke. Thought you'd get it. Oh well.
Nice mouth-stuffing. I didn't mention equality anywhere in my post, kthxbye.
Now, be a Good Boy and read up on the few years of effective Anarchy that ruled Spain in the civil war at the beggining of the century, and come up with a sensible argument on how the supposedly pipe-dream bullshit I spew could endure several years of fighting against soviet and nazi- funded troops.

"Note however that these Spanish Anarchists still had a developed organisational structure, involving workers’ committees and regional congresses. This was highly democratic and all decisions were non-binding, each collectivised community having complete autonomy."
That is an extract from part of an essay I've posted here before. It isn't the best introduction to Anarchism during the war, but it might be helpful.
I would assume that there are many young trouble makers in Europe who claim to be Anarchists, but who are mostly just attention-seeking hooligans who have little or no knowledge Anarchism. I don't live in Europe so I don't know much about it. I bet Wooz could explain the distinction between the youth movement of disenchanted punks and the marginal groups who actually understand what Anarchism is.

Ok Wooz, maybe then you might EXPLAIN to me, what is YOUR view on Anarchism?
And if Anarchism is so good, then why did humanity bother to invent political systems? Like democracy in Athens? If it's great, then how come there are few countries that adopt it?
SN: I got the drift. But you really don't have to threaten me, nor anyone. Civil people are able to use proper sentences, without resorting to unnecessary violence or surgical operations.

Because Anarchism requires voluntary cooperation and individual responsibility of each individuum.
Human beings are egoistic assholes. Quite obvious.

No. If you can't be bothered to do a MINIMUM of research before posting that kind of complete straw arguments, I can't be arsed to explain to you anything at all. Stick to your Authoritarian Rule wet dreams or take a flying fuck at the moon, for all I care.
My view on Anarchism has absolutely nothing to do with the subject at hand, i.e. your inept understanding of a political movement and/or inadequatly labelling a peasants populist party.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
"Chauncey, I'm fed up with this "republic" nonsense. I think we should adopt Feudalism this year, it sounds like such a blast"
"Right-o"
Again, do some fucking research. If you'd bother to read at least a page of what happened during the Spanish revolution and/or a few 19 century thinkers' theories on society, you'd sound a tad less stupid. It seems your deductive and analytical skills are on par with your drawing abilities.
Civil people understand simple jokes on an internet forum. I wasn't threatening you. Sorry for hurting your feeeewiiiings.
Wooz, you seem to have overlooked quietfanatic's post.
I didn't.
I really have other things to do than explain anything to somebody that doesn't bother to do any kind of research before attempting a debate. If Mikael bothers to read a page or two before raising the issue again, I'll gladly do it.
