Any Anarchists?

[Cubey]

Hello, I hope this is not against the server rules. I was just wondering if there are any like-minded anarchists here? I used to be a libertarian for a while until I converted slowly from minimal state to no-state. My views were mostly influenced by David Friedman if you want to read some of his work. I enjoy discussing these ideas with other people greatly. Basically, what I am trying to say is people have a lot of misconceptions about what anarchism is. It is an idea were a lot of serious people carefully explore including many economists, not the common stereotype as a bunch kids who want to break stuff in the street. If you are interested please contact me on steam, it is easier to talk that way than over forum, I know the people in this unit are nice so I be happy to discuss it if you are interested to hear another way of thinking.

I like aspects of Anarchism, it is definitely how I think the ideal society should work aside from Marx's idea of Communism. However, I don't believe that society cannot truly work through anarchy without having a whole society grow up with the values (which is impossible, since nobody teaches the younger generation the same thing, nor is every person going to receive the information the same way) of Anarchy and how to manage their own affairs. The problem is the same one as Communism though, there is no way to prevent vigilantism or abuses of the system (not that there are great ones today in Capitalist society, but still).

Not that I don't believe in Vigilantism as a system of enforcing laws and morals, but the problem with it is that its very easy to degenerate into Mob Rule, which isn't historically rational or moral at times. But yeah, I'm all for the idea of people managing their own affairs without any overseeing body, but then there is no way to protect the individual aside from the individual and anyone else they can convince if anything goes against them.
