Welcome aboard Cindy, you won't have to worry about someone telling you they will pray for you, as their only rebuttal.
Hopefully you will want to make this your home.  |

Anarchism is only the left side of the dialectic process used in the left/right paradigm to promoting the need for a counter to the false right side, called government.
In is not about the false construct of left versus right, it is about the real construct of right versus wrong. |

| No JJ, anarchy is well defined as the absence of Government, so please stop re-defining words to cater for your warped ideology. |

Government is a false construct, so the absence of a false construct, doesn't make anarchism exist.
Without the existence of the concept of government, there would be no such thing, as something defined as "the absence of Government", just as without the existence of theism, there would be no such thing as atheism. You somehow understand that theism is a false construct, but can't wrap your mind around the fact that anarchy can only be, your own inability to function in reality, because your inability to function in reality has no affect on mine. |

No, gov is a false construct in your opinion...granted Gov is loaded with corruption, but that's due to the floating ethics and worship of the mighty dollar.
Anarchy is defined as the absence of an external authority, and that's exactly what you advocate, as such, you fit the description perfectly.
You've got plenty of bad habits JJ, but re-defining words will only get you so far, and nowhere with me.
You have no rational answers for how a society would operate without laws/insurance/gov/police etc, yet expect people to take you seriously, and also have the nerve to shout down at us lesser folk and declare us to be criminals from the vantage point of your irrational ideology. |

All legitimate authority resides in the individual. There is no way to achieve legitimate external authority among adults, therefore any construct used through fraud, deception or manipulation, is a crime against humanity.
You have only substituted one false construct for another in order to carry out your own fraud, deception, and manipulation. |

The only way one can get someone else to do what they want, is by their consent. No matter how the vote turns out those that voted "no" or never voted didn't give their consent.
I can't vote your individual rights and sovereignty away from you. If I can't, then no collective can. |

The nature of a democracy is acceptance of the will of the people, ie, majority rules......and in an ideal world there's no better system, and you're free to live elsewhere if u happen to find one or more decisions so distasteful.
It'd be different if anarchy was a viable alternative to democracy, but since it isn't, and since democracy is without question the best system, you'll just have to live with some decisions or leave. |

If you feel that repulsed by one decision or series of them, then you're free to leave..........so what's your problem? |

Don't have to leave. I'm not the one, who is committing the crime against humanity. |
