You can call me Bobby, I run a little site called Thinksquad. I have an associates degree in industrial design from the Art Institute of Seattle. A bachelors of arts from the University of Washington, and graduated with a double major in philosophy and political science from Rutgers University. I also spent 10 years in the Air Force from 1994-2004, having spent five tours in Iraq and two tours in Afghanistan. I am now a strong advocate of the non-aggression principles, voluntaryism and peaceful parenting.
I believe in anarchism without adjectives, because no one really knows what will work best until we have the chance to try. Local communities should be free to try any non-coercive system, and residents should be able to move somewhere else if they don’t like the way things are going. Through solidarity, competition, and sharing of information eventually a system of social organization would evolve that will be superior to anything that we could imagine today. And even if we were right, we’d only be guessing without going through that process.

The fact that a relatively small movement such as anarchism not only gets militantly attacked and marginalised by liberal democrats, conservatives and fascists, but also by marxists, communists, socialists of all stripes clearly illustrates how dangerous and threatening our ideas of real human freedom and positive social change are for those who desire nothing more than to rule over the rest of us.

I die, as I have lived, a free spirit, an Anarchist, owing no allegiance to rulers, heavenly or earthly.

THINKSQUAD: Then that is called “theft” Stealing is not the cure. I understand Banks and Corporations, now own some of those houses, but the government forced them out. It was always the action of the government. Banks and corporations do not have courts or police, their are no Starbucks Police, or Toy R Us Cops, or Bank of America Sheriffs, This is the government. Buildings stay vacant, because government allows individuals, and business owners to write-off losses on their taxes. Corporations are a fictitious entity created by the government, which allows individuals, or a group of individuals, to gain all the wealth from their profits, and write-off losses to everyone else. Government is the cancer, freedom from government is the cure.

What you whispered should be screamed.: celinameow: OMG I’m like totally an anarchist eff the government!As I...
OMG I’m like totally an anarchist eff the government! As I drive down public roads…. Call the police in emergencies… Call fire men when your house catches fire…. Use fafsa money to pay for school… Expect to be paid my fair wages… And not be forced to work 18 hour days… Rely on medicine discovered by scientists using federal grants…. Collect tax returns every year….
Stop being afraid of the government. What you should really be afraid of is how much power money has over people in the government. OMG guys, did you hear? The government gives us an option to not use all of these things! Just move to…to..oh wait. The government doesn’t give options. There is no place you can move to. It makes a monopoly on every single necessity and we wonder why all our shit sucks and has no incentive to improve itself. And of course, everyone is going to be forced against their will to work 18 hour days. Working less than 30 hours a week due to wage regulations and hourly regulations is so helpful to all of the things I have to pay for and all of the plans I’d like to make. Thanks government, for forcing people to run business the way you want them to! What we should really be worried about it the government’s greed by continuing to give them more of our money! You know, I’d tell you to do some more research, but it seems not much thought was put into this in the first place.(Source: dans-lalune)

The abolition of government is a historical inevitability—and what people say about it now, for or against, will be seen in that light. A culture that blindly clings to a violent and inhuman institution as barbaric as the state will be viewed just as schoolchildren today view slavery, human sacrifice, or the ridiculous idea that the earth is flat.

My political opinions lean more and more to Anarchy (philosophically understood, meaning the abolition of control not whiskered men with bombs)—or to ‘unconstitutional’ Monarchy. I would arrest anybody who uses the word State (in any sense other than the inanimate realm of England and its inhabitants, a thing that has neither power, rights nor mind); and after a chance of recantation, execute them if they remained obstinate! If we could get back to personal names, it would do a lot of good. Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so to refer to people.

Anarchists work towards a society of mutual aid and voluntary co-operation. We reject all government and economic repression.

since it was thought that government was necessary and that without government there could only be disorder and confusion, it was natural and logical that anarchy, which means absence of government, should sound like absence of order.
