Anarchy

2 Conversations

"Anarchy" began life as the political idea of removng all governments and systems of heirarchy. However, by the common interpretation of the word as "no order", it became synonomous with "chaos."

With the advent of the Internet and it's dark side, the meaning of anarchy declined further, to a mere synonym for "vandalize, steal, blow s**t up, and generally be a little juvenile delinquent punk." A search on the 'net for "anarchy" will turn up some sites based on the political idea now known as "libertarian socialism" (not to be confused with Libertarianism or Socialism), but most are anarchy in the worst of its many definitions.

Do not, I repeat, DO NOT do anything described on . You'll end up in jail if you're lucky, or more likely dead or disfigured.
