hmm I have a idea... Lets say Italy converted to anarchism, and then Spain tried to invade Italy, I assume then that Italy would have to defend itself... The private military operations in Italy would defend the place... and defend anarchism. Please discuss! I would like to see other peoples opinions of this situation......

That is an excellent question -- I do talk about this in more detail in this free book, it might be worth a listen to at least get some perspective on the issue... :)

It seems to me that the world of anarchy that you call for was already put in place by Jesus, and the coming of the Kingdom of God. a true world of peace and compassion can olnly from my perpective be attainable by following the teachings of Jesus. (distinct from the teachings of the church) Even if you are not a Christian, in order to have peace with anyone you must follow the teachings of Jesus, whether you know them or not. See for yourself, Matthew 5,6,7, and 8. read it, before replying

Sorry, but Jesus commands his followed to put unbelievers like me to death... Here, from the bible

NASB: "But these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them in my presence."

I will innovate for beer and weed. Lots of people will innovate for lots of different reasons. Most innovation is not done by people who are necessarily interested in money. This video in itself is an example of such.

One word, Linux. Everyone in the world working on a amazing project that everyone owns.

@BrettDunbar "We need capitalism for a very long time to grow our society. Then we will eventually turn into a peaceful utopian anarchist society. Not for a very long time" The freed markets of anarchism sounds like the epitomy of capitalism. I watched a speech by this guy yesterday online, and he really challenged my idea that we need any force at all. It's insane how Statism rocks the globe.

Stefan I have to say thank you for spreading your ideas. I used to be a Republican thinking they were "pro freedom and democracy". After seeing a few of your videos I decided to do more research. I now see how false that idea is and advocate a voluntary society. Thank you for saving my brain ; )

@GodOfTheInternets DemoCRAZY is 51% of the populace voting for the other 49% to be marched into gas chambers. Fuck it.

@23Memes

everyone in the anarchy would be armed

there would be no centerfold for power so thered be no specific thing to destroy

if they wanted to take over they have to kill everyone

which would be hard to do with most everyone defending the themselves and friends.

@GodOfTheInternets: I meant that we have the foundations in place for Anarcho-Capitalism; it'd only be a progression of the current Capitalist system, as opposed to genuine Anarchism which runs in the opposite political direction. Anarcho-Capitalism is just a Neo-Liberal front to ensnare would-be Anarchists with the notion that we could achieve an Anarchist utopia without drastically re-thinking our economic and societal structure.

@GodOfTheInternets

No rulers*

@JCLeSinge

I disagree we're not even close to anarcho-Capitalism, there's have a monopoly of force. Anarchism means "no leaders" so indeed "anarcho"-Capitalism is not really anarchism.

[JCLeSinge]

@GodOfTheInternets: Thanks for the clarification. Anarcho-Captalism isn't Anarchy, it's Neo-Liberalism; what we have right now is as close to Anarcho-Capitalism as anyone with any sense wants to get, it wouldn't be in any way progressive to remove what's left of the state and let the corporate bastards take total overt control.
