RE: So, you're an anarchist?
A lack of present or historical examples of a state of the world is not an indication that this state cannot come into being or that it shouldn't come into being. A couple examples:
- Women's right to vote
- Abolishment of slavery
The Rights you present for discussion are "rights" within a State. This is a discussion on "Anarchy".
Anarchy is a description of how sovereign entities interact outside of the structure of a State.
You questioned the feasibility of anarchy by saying it had never occurred before, correct? My reference to those rights are to point out that your reasoning may be faulty here, not to make a comment in their relationship to the State.
They are examples of things I assume you believe are good and are working well despite never having existed before.
I called it a fantasy. I don't believe in limits either. Flight was a fantasy before they worked out the details. The Author made another comment about Lichtenstein being an example but I said it's an example of a State.... the Author also mentioned Liberland and I said I'd check it out and asked if they had an Good data on it. Check your arrogance man... I know I have trouble with it too. Did you read my observations on Globalists acting like sovereigns? https://steemit.com/anarchy/@adconner/globalism-is-anarcho-capitalism
I have not read your article.
I do try to keep arrogance in check as i struggle with it as well, but I don't know where it manifested in this conversation. Could you point it out please?
I apologize. That was meant for @scottermonkey who called me unimaginative.
The term "Anarchist State" is an oxymoron.
I use "state" to mean a state of being not a government. Does that clear this up, or is that what you thought I meant when you commented?
If I'm not mistaken Anarchy is not a state of mind but the Antithisis of a State.
I didn't say it was a state of mind.
State of being same thing.
I'm talking about the state of the world, not of an individual, so it's not the same thing. Sorry, I should be more precise in my language to avoid this type of confusion. Does that clarify what I was saying?
Here is the state of the world: https://steemit.com/anarchy/@adconner/globalism-is-anarcho-capitalism
Anarchy is a description of how sovereigns interact outside of the rule of law of a State.
We are discussing Anarchy not A State of Being. ;) ijs.
Anarchy is a potential state of the world, is it not?
What is ijs?
Yes but only If all 7 Billion plus, people are all considered Sovereign Entities; each with sovereign capabilities but statistics and human nature run contrary to that. At one time in the history of mankind The earth was in that state of being but she is too overpopulated now to realistically consider as viable method of governance.
What are the statistics you're referring to?
