@landgabriel

I agree, that's why I keep a healthy agnosticism when concerning life particulars :-)

*thumbs up*

[landgabriel]

@borkoboyanov I guess what I mean is having fun. Using metaphors, analogies, subtext, etc. also requires a sort of sense of the absurd in life. Zerzan seems to think it all matters SO much. But the absurdity is we may only be molecules in a much larger scale of things.

@landgabriel

Depends what you mean by play. The man seem to be using word play and trickery. After all he is a philosopher, right? Symbols form there where those would be expressed through body language.

[landgabriel]

You'll notice that Zerzan has a lack of personality. He has no sense of the absurd. I don't trust people who don't have a certain playfulness. As far as I am concerned, unless you are starving to death or dying of cancer or paralyzed, there's no excuse to lose touch with the primitive instinct of play and trickery.

Late answer, ....but I must say I do not think in that way about anarchism, because it could be achieved in a different manner, we could start a new way of thinking and acting inside anarchistic societies so that without a government we would decide by ourselves what needs should be fullfilled and how we could design and structurate our lifestyle then, ... no anarchist wishes to continue mass production and so on
