Why I’m an Anarchist
Anarchists are commonly associated with bomb-throwing and mayhem on the streets, but in reality that is the government, religion and media’s objective. They need a subservient society in order to maintain control for their oppressive, egotistical agenda.
Anarchy is a society based on mutual aid, sharing, collaboration, and
freedom. A world that values people where everyone is free to follow
their passions. A people who are empowered to solve problems as a
community. There is a break with authority where we feel comfortable
with not obeying and not having the instinct to obey but are comfortable
with our ability to to govern no one but ourselves.
We go forward not just blindly obeying and believing what we are told but follow the only moral authority which exists inside all at birth until we are indoctrinated.
Unless citizens themselves take responsibility, society will continue be ripped apart and continue crumbling. It is possible to have a society where things like meaning, community, and love are at the heart of society, not afterthoughts in an economy and culture that pretends that wealth is the most important measure of success. Through compassion, voluntarism, kindness and love together we can reweave the tattered threads of society.

Anarchy offers a deeper
and more enduring order where we respect and work with one another on
the things we most care about, a society we can pass on to future
generations.
