Lol, “And we all do conform. To say otherwise is to suggest that you will turn up naked at a movie cinema or happily scream and yell whenever people try to communicate with you- the layers of conformity run so deep that even the most conformist of us is likely to self-express in some way or another.”

I go to McDonalds naked and when they refuse to serve me I throw things at them…and I am probably one of the most loudest people you’ll ever meet, I’m ruthless, I do what I want, when I want and nobody can change that.

Interesting take on things. The absence of rebels doesn’t necessitate a totalitarian society but it would certainly make for a boring one. If you get a moment, it would be worth sitting down with a copy of Albert Camus’ “The Rebel”. A lot of what he has to say might be of interest to you. And yes, Anarchy means different things to different people – that’s part of its lure – but in its purist form, Anarchy actually holds as much rules as just about anything else. Try watching any society larger than a small settlement as it attempts to negotiate the no-man’s land between individual rights and societal obligations (interpret that as the right of others for your activities to not impact on their enjoyment). Eventually you end up with committees and rules and obligations and requirements. All very un-anarchy to most people’s minds. If that sounds trite, have a read of “Demanding the Impossible, a history of Anarchism”, by Peter Marshall. It’s a brick of a book but an easy read none-the-less. It lists a whole series of attempts at setting up societies based on anarchistic principles.

So it makes sense that the individual needs to find their own comfort level in adopting the extent to which they will conform. And we all do conform. To say otherwise is to suggest that you will turn up naked at a movie cinema or happily scream and yell whenever people try to communicate with you- the layers of conformity run so deep that even the most conformist of us is likely to self-express in some way or another.

Anarchy is the way I live, I don’t follow any rules (also why I’m on good behaviour) but without rebels we’d just be living in a totalitarian society…

True but only in a superficial sense. Risk everything and you may lose everything. Risk nothing and you may be rewarded beyond your dreams. Not all good people receive good outcomes from an uncertain world, and many quite bad people revel in plenty.

But the point “Anarchy is a way of living,…” is a good one. How will you choose to live your life? An evil government adminstrator or a brave rebel? A good government worker or a brutal and reckless perpetrator of random acts of violence? Anarchy is many things but it will not solve all problems – hopefully the big ones though!

Anarchy is a way of living, it is the solution to all the problems.
No Risk, No Reward.
Risk everything and be rewarded. Don’t risk a thing and don’t be rewarded at all.
