Help me respond to "ANARCHY IS CHOAS"

In the words of Alan Moore [Anarchist/Comic Book writer/Magician]: "When people tell me that under anarchy the biggest gang will just take over I just point out that that is our current form of government. A glorified big gang that will kill you if you disagree with what they do."
Also about the overpopulation argument, that is much more tricky to handle. Kaczynski in, "Industrial Society and It's Future," believes that a voluntary reduction in the birth rate would solve the problem. However there are also Anarchists who either bury the problem or associate any solutions with some sort of Fascist eugenics program. So it can really be a matter of opinion.
It probably didn't, but I hope this helps you. Good luck with the guy on the other forum.
Peace be with you.

 

I always just tell amateurs to go to this page.

Same thing over here, I tend to direct them to the same link. It's a pretty good introduction except for the long and non-sprayable link.

 

haven't had time to read this all through, but i think the socrates'way of unmasking fake certainties is very good. in this case, what it would come down to i guess is: "so what we have now (.......list of nowadays disasters of all kinds, mainly involving the so-called "order) is NOT chaos but order? well, very nice for you, but people are starving out there because of your view on "order"... says it all... so reverse the question? how could anarchy be any worse then this? (off course for the rich few it will be worse)
best of luck

Tell him there's a difference between Anarchy and Chaos? Just like there is a difference between Order and Authority. In fact, it is my opinion that Any Anarchist community should be somewhat ordered if it is to function

 

It's funny. Everyone tries to say anarchy would be chaos, yet there is an increasing libertarian demographic here in the US.
Individualism would erupt in chaos.
Everyone owning guns, open racism, open discrimination, unchained capitalism, which we all know is the main cause of "crime."

Basically the "I can do whatever I want, but if you don't like you can kill me" idea.

 

The Tea party is a libertarian party (in the US sense) that is getting a strong following in the US, right? The Tea Party were amusing right up until people started joining them. I hear that David Duke (the ex KKK member) has alluded to representing the party, as many wannabe governors have asked him to.

 

so true
