    I won't point a gun at you to take or control, don't point a gun at me to take or control. I'll vote to limit the states aggression and against others attempts to take ownership over others through the state by their votes and government programs. I do believe in the sovereignty of the individual and individual ownership of property, but do not oppose or discourage individuals grouping themselves together collectively and collectively owning property, as well as voluntarily giving up their sovereignty as individuals if they wish. I do see the problems with individuals and groups acquiring large monopolies of resources, but I believe if the property was not acquired through violence, violence(state action) is not an ethical way to correct those problems. I don't see an individual or group having a monopoly on the legal use of violence ever as the answer. I see the state, those monopolies on violence, as the poison that infects this planet, with the only way to cure the disease is to educate others to the truth that government is always violence and then to see the immoral uses of violence every government wields, along with every voting individual within those democratic governments that are guilty of using that immoral violence against others.

    You could say that I'm an anarchist that has thrown away hope and humanitarianism. I've abandoned politics, and care more about primitivism and what you could call spiritual pursuits these days. The politics positions that have remains are considered extremist, and I don't openly share them with strangers. I sympathize with the anarcho-communist and syndicalist movements, but do not adopt a label. I still support and live an anarchist lifestyle.

    Funny that you critize the labels but you openly identify yourself with a religious label. A big contradiction here..

    An "anarchist" who abandonned politics and care more about his religion ? I'd call that a religious person, not an anarchist.

    Primitivist who live surrounded by technology and who use a computer always made me laugh...

    i agree on the point about primitivism... you guys have your society right out there. you dont have to fight for it. if you don't want it don't call yourself that... i for one love air conditioning and computers.

    Just write "syndicalist" dear Wid ;)
    If you're a syndicalist you are Anarchist/communist, feminist, anti-fascist, anti-racist, anti-disablist, internationalist and a unionist (hopefully)

    Political Compass

    Alright, this is merely all for shits and giggles, since obviously we're all going to fall on the bottom left, but hey, why the hell not right?
    Here is your chance to prove you're more anarchist than someone else :p jk.
    Some of the questions kind of suck because they're between government regulation or the free market, and don't have an option for regulation and/or control by the people.

    here's the site: http://www.politicalcompass.org/test

    and here's mine:

    pretty consistent with everyone elses i'd imagine... but some of those questions are absolutely stupid and should effect politicalness... (the one about abstract art in particular...)

    I identify myself as an anarcho-syndicalist because i spend most of my time in the labor movement . But i advocate every tradition within "libertarian socialism" .

    Libertarian socialist I guess, still sorting it out though (which is probably true of any 17 tear old, almost)

    Well that's what I got on that test up there...not as extreme as some here, but pretty far left and pretty far libertarian.
