There are many righteous notions which people worldwide wish for all of humanity to possess; Peace, equality, justice, freedom and happiness. But contrary to the endless propaganda that is force fed to us from government-approved media sources about how the state is necessary for these ideas to be fulfilled, these ideas are actually incompatible with any kind of state. When most argue against Anarchy I say Instead of hypothesizing about the pending chaos that might happen, think about the calamities that are happening now and have been across the world, war, poverty, and the degradations of violence sanctioned by political power and laws.
The popular image of anarchy is of people rioting in the streets, burning cars and smashing storefronts. The news media promotes this propaganda because it would like you to believe that this behavior is the inevitable result of anarchy and you must therefore embrace government who will protect you. But the truth is, this is the exact opposite of anarchy.
Anarchy is one of the most peaceful and moral philosophies, and the act of destroying property is completely antithetical to their belief in voluntary interaction. Anarchists don't engage in the destructive activities the media attributes to them. In fact if the idea of peace and harmony, and improvement in conditions across the world is important to you find yourself an Anarchist and engage them in conversation. As Emma Goldman said "Anarchism, really stands for the liberation of the human mind from the dominion of religion; the liberation of the human body from the dominion of property; liberation from the shackles and restraint of government.” With the truth united we stand, for peace, freedom, health and happiness for all.
