Good lord, Tizh. What exactly do you think enforces the law?

That's right: government.

Now, allow me another question: how do we define anarchy?

That's right: the lack of government.

Please, be clear and precise. How do you propose to pass and enforce laws without government operating?

Anarchy is, by definition, lawlessness -- with everything that implies. Feel free to point me to any one single example of a successful anarchic society. I'll be happy to point you to failed examples.

How would you have laws without government?  Tell me how human relations might be peaceful without government when even with governments there are still robberies, rapes, murders, and so on? Be specific.

I watch a youtuber and part of his talking points is advocating some form of anarchy. 

I don't know all the ins and outs of the proposal but in relation to the example you provided of people entering contracts he has a video talking about precisely that.

The proposal is that there would be an organization a bit like an insurance company, when you both enter a contract you both do so with the help of a dispute resolution organization which you both agree upon.

Right now you have the police who uphold the law and they are a government agency, the idea in anarchy is that people voluntarily pay for law and order to be upheld in their community instead of the police being paid for by forced taxation.


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.
