Quote:It's more that I don't adhere to any particular ideology... hence anarchy Smile I'll do what I do, without the barest thought of continuing to follow whatever ideologies such actions may represent at whatever time.
Well what exactly do you do, that part I don't understand, that represents whatever "ideologies" you talked about here?
Quote:Well, yes, and yes... but I also enjoy my home life separate entirely from the political concerns that would seem to plague the common man.
What exactly do you mean by that?
Quote:I would agree with that end, but then: I believe the same of most ideology. There can be practical uses for anarchy (government destabilization, for instance... potentially upset), but most uses of political ideology are smallscale (else there would be no 'special political activists' of the famous variety: we'd all be that).
Well, I personally think that anarchy today is just a way for youngsters to blow off steam by looting and rioting.

It's not relevant: hypothetically I might do anything, and never be following any ideology at all in my doing so.

I rarely have any concern regarding politics. When I am concerned is where policy threatens beings I value. Even then, I usually don't get involved.
Quote:Well, I personally think that anarchy today is just a way for youngsters to blow off steam by looting and rioting.
The day I start rioting will be an odd one indeed Looting, well... I can see the value in it, but I am not a girl of many needs. I simply don't think about what to do with most of what could be looted, unless I'm in a particular need for a lootable item. That's usually just called 'stealing', though.
I am in full support of corpse-robbing, obviously
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

Well, you only follow an ideology when you choose to follow it.
Then anything you might do, you can devote to its name.
This is what I do.

Well, your call.

A simple life is a good life my friend.
Too many possessions weigh heavily on one's heart.
As a Turkish saying goes;
"Neden mala muncha sok ol bu özüng?
Köngülde gamyng ol tilingde sözüng,
barursyn bu malyng yagunga kalur,
uyatup birürler saryngy bezing."
Meaning;
"Why are you so greedy for property?
it is the burden of your heart and the word of your tongue,
maybe your property will one day be in your enemy's hand,
they'll only (measure and) fit you a shroud."

This is what I do.
As stated: I follow no ideology. What I do changes on a whim with the fickleness of the child. Anarchy is a little chaotic that way.
Though you may be correct: I could well begin the religion of Alice, and it one day become an ideology followed by all of those upon this earth.
Only... why would I?

I happen to agree. There is a lot of wisdom in that.

Yeah....you do that.

Well, to me, property and all worldly possessions, including my own fleshly body are merely tools to aid the realization of our goals. Through this devotion, even the most basic of inanimate objects gain a purpose in their use and consumption.
