[–] Sightline@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago* (2 children) "so you should know I’m an anarchist" I stopped reading there permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 years ago (2 children) Just so you're aware, the anti-government Anarchist trope isn't real. Anarchists generally see the government as useful. It's also not about the government. It's about power structures in general which restrict people's freedoms. It's a very good philosophy, but the name has been ruined (probably purposefully) by the media portrying them as edgy total anti-government idiots. If you've ever in your life thought Libertarians had decent ideas, Anarchism is the actual good version of that that isn't just created to allow people to have sex with children. Anarchism wants government to protect people and wants to remove restrictive and coercive power structures. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] random@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 2 years ago there are definitely anarchists that are anti government, just not as extreme as most people portrait us permalink fedilink source parent [–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social -1 points 2 years ago Lol permalink fedilink source parent [–] random@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) ok, and you won't have to read it permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) No, force him, with the power of the state! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] random@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 point 2 years ago nah, we don't do that here permalink fedilink source parent
