RE: Anarchism Takes Courage: Helping People Escape the Cult of Normalcy

Sounds great. My fear is that by attempting to destroy a government that allows some degree of liberty within the bounds of societal order we would then have complete disorder and chaos which would cause the rise of an even greater governing power and a greater loss of liberty than we currently enjoy. Do you think it is possible that the governments of the world know this and therefore they have patiently and methodically planted the seeds of anarchy in the hearts of the people through the educational system, knowing that eventually the anarchists will bring down the current system? Could their hope be that the people will be so desperate that they will clamor for and even beg for a government to take control and establish order once again out of the chaos? This would result in the exact opposite effect desired by the anarchists but would play out perfectly for the governments who want complete power over the populace. It is a very difficult situation we are in. We currently do not have the level of liberty our creator intended for us to enjoy. We can either fight for the complete destruction of government and hope we win and maintain control or we fight to remove the corruption from the current system and methodically work to change government back to its core purpose which in my mind is to guarantee our liberty. Thanks for the interesting discussion. I agree that the people should have absolute control over the government. They are supposed to work for us - not the other way around.
