While I am aware of the fallibility of pretty much every political model, I find anarchy to be a very optimistic dream. The thing is, the world is full of arseholes. Many models could possibly work, if not for this. How does anarchy ensure that we cater for and protect the vulnerable? The disabled, the elderly, etc... In my experience, people are mostly selfish (big generalisation I know, but it's already been a challenging day, so please just let me have that one). And there will always be those who strive to be a tyrant, and will use any means, which many many people will fall for because they would rather forgo freedom than take personal responsibility and be a grown up. All the personal vices people have now would still exist within anarchism or any political structure. That is why I'm not a devotee of any model, but would like to see the best from all, which another optimistic dream. There would still have to be safeguards. It is human nature that creates this necessity. What would you do to address my concerns, if tomorrow, you could achieve your ideal of global anarchy?
