RE: Nothing says anarchy, a stateless society with no hierarchy, quite like Joseph Stalin.
I agree that bad anarchy can be a kind of mob ruling democracy which may have been part of the downfall to the Roman Empire centuries ago for example. In other words, like you said, power vacuums have been used historically to replace one form of big government with another big form of government, meaning that anarchy has been used by tyrannical authoritarianism, historically speaking, we can see these patterns again and again and again and again and again as we study world history, psychology, anthropology, etc.
Yeah so the name of the game is you get some patsies to do your dirty work for you like antifa. Then you clean up and take over instating whatever form of government you want.
The World Police:
I have an aunt who seems to be ok with the idea of America saving the world via policing it like a global governmental tyrant.
Monopoly of Government
I like America, hypothetically, but I am against the monopoly of government. That is what you get with a one world government, a monopoly of tyranny, of power.
Weakest Link?
That is only as good as the people within an authoritarian state. So, it comes back down to psychology. Some people want to believe that government is perfect or whatever they want to call it.
So Good Huh?
And beyond that, many people tend to believe that people are good. But people are bad. People need help. Now, some people can do some good sometimes.
Kids Do Bad
But you don't have to teach a child to steal, lie, hit, etc. Kids do bad things. Regardless of what you do, children sometimes do bad things. Because people are bad. Yes, there is hope. And some people are awesome.
Good vs Better
And each one of us can choose to make better choices. But we can also choose to make good choices. But better choices are better than good choices.
