RE: Answering some questions about Anarchy (Please let me know what you would say differently)

in #anarchy7 years ago

Wow, am I the only actual commenter? Good lord.

I do have questions, actually. Why would the government let these people do what they want? If they invaded and conquered, they could force the people to obey their laws, or else face the consequences. What would stop them from just coming in and saying, "all this land that you've been living on is now government property and as such you have to do X."?

I'm thinking of recent bullying activites by the US government - the Dakota Pipeline incident in particular. They wanted a certain resource - the land - and they took it despite the laws of the society that owned it.

Why wouldn't they do the same for an anarchist community? Then they would control the land and the people living on it.

Sort:  

This is one reason why people should never allow themselves to be disarmed. I would rather die than be ruled. We are all individual kings and queens. Actual rulers are always tyrants.

re-read. Perhaps you are commenting where others haven't because you have misunderstood...
