Anarchists are never in a position of power because we reject power.

What is power?

Threat, coercion, control, violence.

The Marxist doctrine that we need more state (socialism) in order to have no state (Communism) makes as much sense as saying we need to put gasoline on the fire in order to stop the building from burning down.

I think it's about time we faced the possibility that Marx invented a system that lured those who wanted to get rid of the state apparatus into a new form of radical Statism that promises a stateless society that never comes.

Communism was the bait to get all the freedom minded people on the socialist track of radical Statism, instead of that of the real revolution of ethics and freedom that is anarchism.

The state is the eternal enemy of freedom, ethics, abundance and security.
