I've flirted with anarchism, philosophically, to the point of being a part of a few internet forums w/r/t it. In a perfect world, I'd defiantly go with an authority-less bottom up society. I guess the issue is that we don't live in a perfect world, and I can't figure out how anarchy could ever work.
Also, the anarchist community at large has a lot of issues. Lots of anti-intellectualism, as well as some seriously fucked up people. Also a lot of people who haven't given the issue a whole lot of thought. Oh, and from what I've been able to gather, a lot of anarchists are pro alternative medicine. And the whole punk rock purism thing, which excludes all other types of music.
The list continues, but I guess that's not a criticism of anarchy ideologically.
