Then we'd need a leader, and I would "volunteer" to be the first one. Then we'd make a constitution, since so many people would now be a part of our collective that we'd need clear and fair standards for all. Then I'd dress an orangutan in a suit and make him shout about brown people.
Wait a minute. . .
Obviously, anarchy can never work, because people are social animals, and will instantly make a new government to fill the void.
And you explained in a concise nut shell why anarcho-whatever is all complete nonsense.
Again, not that I don't see flaws in anarchist capitalism, but I think you could probably describe most political systems on paper and literally point out thousands of flaws.
A lot of people would say democracy is a good idea, but then if you look at the situation with the brexit.
Lots of people were saying democracy is a good idea but oh shit, the people voted for the wrong option!
And it is a fact for better or for worse that you are letting millions of illogical, indoctrinated, uneducated people vote for an important decision.
I'm not saying I'm against democracy or for anarchist capitalism just to clarify.
I don't believe that there really is a perfect government system.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
