    ok ok i was just making sure it seems that anarchy is much more then what people make it out to be... a year ago when i first started getting into anarchy i was really stupid then thank goodness for this site and world history class.....actually my world history teacher was a bit poilitics guy and i think he might have been a capitalist idk but he was the one person i knew that would actually sit and listen to my views and not interupt me or give stupid bullshit and a few times when i would walk into class he would say anarchy rules and as far as i was concerned it didnt sound like any form of sarcasm so i actually think i made decent points to him or maby he really was being sarcastic lolz

    Adam182:
    Anarchism is so filled with misunderstandings. It takes a little while to get it all straight, but usually, when people start with the bullshit like "what would you do if someone then killed your parents" and all that, the easiest thing to say is just "Anarchy is not the absence of rules, just the absence of authority" or something like that.

    Outside activist and personal circles i don't call myself an anarchist , because the term anarchist was subverted i usually use terms like "libertarian socialist" , "revolutionary syndicalist " , "radical democrat " etc. People don't react so crazy when they hear such terms so when i introduce them to such terms and what these terms represent i gradually tell them these ideas are categorized as anarchist so the shock of is not that big .
