So often, people think there is a competition between Government and Anarchy.. Which idea is better? In reality, there is NO competition between the two. Government itself is an ALL or nothing competition - Republican vs Democrat or Labor vs Green vs Conservative - no matter which one WINS, everyone has to follow their set of rules.
Anarchy allows ALL preferences to flourish. Anarchy itself is not a preference. Anarchy itself does not discriminate. Anarchy can be Agnostic, Atheist, Muslim, Christian or Jew. Anarchy can be opposite sex or same sex or group sex. Anarchy can be black, white, brown and red. Anarchy can be Capitalist or Socialist. Anarchy is saying what you prefer.
Anarchy is POWER, Statism is Surrogate Power.
Therefore, Anarchy cannot be violence in the same sense that sound cannot be food.
