RE: Steemit is an Anarchistic Model We Can Develop and Bring to the Real World

in #anarchy • 8 years ago (edited)

anarchy means 'without ruler', singular, is does NOT mean 'without rulerS' ... otherwise it would be anarchos, not anarchy

the anarchists were the Greeks that didn't want to replace the murdered king with another king, so instead they invented the senate and by doing so ... they created the state

the state as we know was invented by anarchists

those are just the facts

    Thanks for the etymological clarification, but its' inconsequential. It still doesn't change the reality of one, two, three or more rulers over our life and the principle of anarchy to divorce ourselves from that.

    "The word anarchy comes from the ancient Greek ἀναρχία (anarchia), which combines ἀ (a), "not, without" and ἀρχή (arkhi), "ruler, leader, authority." Thus, the term refers to a person or society "without rulers" or "without leaders."" source

    You're point is moot and irrelevant to make your case.

    Peace.

      hahaha ... you copy/paste some nonsense from the internet and you think that means something ...

      next thing you'll tell me is that America is the land of the free and the home of the brave ... I bet you believe that nonsense as well

      hahaha ... I love uneducated fools, always good for a laugh

      You still can't get out of your myopic fixation to understand one or more rulers still applies to the understanding of what anarchy means. Stay stuck in your rigidity. Nice job turning into a troll. Peace.

        hahaha ... you really think that by using 'difficult' words, you're saying something

        while you're completely missing the point; anarchy doesn't mean stateless!

        the state as we know it, was created by anarchists; that's a historical fact!

        let me try to make it as clear as possible; you're full of shit!

          ow, did I hurt your feelings? GOOD!

          because the only reason why I'm able to hurt your feelings, is because you're not a rational person

          you don't use facts as your reference point to make up your mind, you only use your own personal feelings ... you will believe whatever makes you feel good without ever taking any effort to check facts

          you're not an anarchist or a libertarian; you're fucking leftie

          a leftie who happens to hate the state, there were most lefties adore the state

          but as long you don't understand the important of 'cogito ergo sum' ... you're just another worthless leftie!

          "Difficult" words? What?

          You're very confused on what the state is and what anarchy is. Take it from the grandfather of modern anarchism Michail Bakunin:

          "The social theory of the anti-state socialists or anarchists leads them directly and inevitably towards a break with all forms of the State, with all varieties of bourgeois politics, and leaves no choice except a social revolution. The opposite theory, state communism and the authority of the scientists, attracts and confuses its followers and, under the pretext of political tactics, makes continuous deals with the governments and various bourgeois political parties, and is directly pushed towards reaction."

          "... No state, however democratic — not even the reddest republic — can ever give the people what they really want, i.e., the free self-organization and administration of their own affairs from the bottom upward, without any interference or violence from above, because every state, even the pseudo-People’s State concocted by Mr. Marx, is in essence only a machine ruling the masses from above, through a privileged minority of conceited intellectuals, who imagine that they know what the people need and want better than do the people themselves..."
          Statism and Anarchy

          Stop trolling your arrogant ignorance. I have enough with one troll who keeps targeting me. Go back under your bridge.
