About

 

I have created this space to save my thought regarding the merits of Anarchism. Particularly, I would like to record resolutions on concepts such as monetary and other systems of exchange, policing systems, and how human nature—the concept of nature, in general—come into play. I would also like to explore the stability of a anarchic system. Even if is is internally viable, how would it deal with external forces insistent on imposing structure and more importantly a government?

The biggest threat, methinks, would come from organised religion and other absolutist regimes. When Marx considered, “Religion is the opiate of the masses,” he was referring to the mindless blind faith the followers give to the religious hierarchies. He considered that this obsequious behaviour would prevent any form of revolt, as it threatens eternal damnation, good for social control. It helps to produce false consciousness.
