Anarchists and Neo-Con Republicans

Just stripped down version of my 16 minute rant on anarchists and neo-con republicans. I do not like them, do not agree with them and hope to eventually be able to articulate my reasons in a more rational manner. This vid is just rant and practice for what is to come.

Government is the shadow corporations cast over society.

:-D

[KevinBernal]

The government has been co-opted by the corporations. Someday people will understand that and will revolt against the corporations just as we did against England. Individuals should have freedom and liberty. Corporations should be controlled by those whose lives they affect; not the other way around. Corporations are NOT human beings. They are human constructs for gaining privilege, power and control.

Whenever you have institutions of power with hierarchy then people who think they have a better way to run the country will try to obtain the position of power at the top of this hierarchy.

How can people revolt when they don't truly realise they are being oppressed?

Thanks very much for your responses tonight. You have given me much to think about for my next video. And that afterall is the purpose, to think and learn.

You talk about how the lack of state would lead to stealing, and then you list state-backed examples of stealing.

ur justification for the existence of a government is lesser and more flawed than an anarchist's justification of wanting no government.u have the wrong perception of what anarchy is,having no rulers does not mean that there will not be rules government is flawed because it puts an elite group of people and their interests above the people in general when it could be better for people to make their own rules and decisions by means of direct democracy instead of this fake representative democracy

Anarchism comes more from a "revenge of the little people" outlook than a "those with power stomp on individual rights". At least that's how the anarchists see it. In contrast to the individualism you are talking about most anarchists think that the absence of a central power would make it more difficult for people to control each other and that people would have to live in tight-knit groups or communes for survival. Not saying it's right, but you definitely misrepresent it.

...living in a system which causes people to die: how many people have been murdered by the government? What percentage of wars are caused by states? (one hundred).

Another good question is: how many men does it take to make taxes legitimate? If 100 men came round to your house violently demanding taxes, would you see that as necessary? Especially if they said it was for charity. What about 1000 men? What if you could vote to choose the leader of the gang?

I had to stop at "anarchy causes people to starve" and "we don't deserve to live if we're not violently forced to generously give to the poor". I'm sorry but why do we need a monopoly of violence to tell us where to allocate our resources? I give to charity because it makes me feel good, not because the government cronies pull out their guns to make me. How can you say that nobody has the right to keep their own hard-earnt resources? Of course they have the fucking right. And regarding...

"If you take the ideas...Not the execution."

And if we all clap our hands & believe we can make Tinkerbell come back to life! But, seriously, you can't argue from the point of dispute.

Born-again Christians are the unwitting puppets of the Republican elite. Using the name of Jesus Christ to amass wealth, and political power is the agenda. Hitler used the German people's cultural insecurities to control them. This is also what the Republican party is doing with uneducated, and shallow-minded Americans.

I support anarcho-capitalism. The government is taking away our freedoms. Ever heard of the patriot act? Over a million people have died in this latest Iraq war. Voting won't change anything and you know that. The politicians are bought and sold. The military industrial complex continues. Vice president Dick Cheney made 70 million dollars profit from the war. The federal reserve (private bank owners) profit from wars. We need more anarchists to fight for our freedoms.

as an anarchist, i do not fight for anarchy as a whole at this stage. i don't jump that far ahead. it wouldn't make sense and it would be a wasted life. i stand up against the systems of control that are made to keep us in line and ready to obey the institutions that opress and dehumanize the people in this world and turn us away from all the things we truly live for.
