RE: Lysander Spooner... do you even know who he was? I personally think he was an incredibly interesting person in history.

Anarchy is the rejection of governmental authority and societal hierarchy. Nothing to do with lawlessness.
But- It also has become a synonym for chaos and disorder. Probably propaganda.

Yep. I didn't say lawlessness. I simply stated the etymology of the word and where it comes from and what it means.

It literally means "No Rulers".

Everything beyond that is subjective interpretation.

It doesn't mean chaos, though that is how the media loves to present it.

Many people think of Road Warrior/Mad Max type settings when they think of Anarchy because that is what they have been conditioned to think.

Exactly, conditioning.
