Government is Irrational.
RE: Government is Irrational.
(July 8, 2013 at 9:20 pm)Koolay Wrote: Well, by that definition of what constitutes as 'anarchism' - then eBay is not anarchist, as it is subject to government laws. Everything is subject to government laws though, because if you don't comply then you get forcefully thrown in a cage. Anyone who works outside the law would either be in complete secret to the point where I wouldn't be able to quote them or that their operations are stopped and put in a cage.

And then you criticize me for not showing a working example of a successful anarchist society when it is violently and directly stopped by the government from reaching any large or successful scale.

It's like holding a bird down with your foot and saying "See! birds can't fly" Maybe take your god damn foot off and then we shall see.

Also, the definition of Anarchism you got wrong, it is rules but no rulers. So if you going to lecture me, I would appreciate you actually knowing what you are talking about.

But don't you see, that is why anarchism simply cannot succeed at a large scale. It will always be at the mercy of the first person with a gun who decides to take charge.

As for everything being under government law, please learn how to google. There are many anarchist societies, past and present, out there.
