What is anarchism?

A system of government (or lack there of) where everyone can do their own thing (that means ANYTHING) Anarchism is an idiots version of socialism, i.e. the state is the people and thereby serves the people by working for the common good, and halting those who do not (in most cases, corporations)-socialism. The funny thing about anarchism is, with no government to hold down greedy companies, anarchism becomes "corportate republicanism", (Sid Meyers, Civilization) whereby big business controls every aspect of life, from utilities and the military, to your paycheck and children's education, and the only democracy is between the leaders of major business around the globe. In essence, rather than bringin us towards a utopia, anarchism bring us closer to the ultimate exploitation of the human race.

Anarchists practice anarchism, and are idiots.

Anarchism is a lack of government

What does "anarchism" mean?

Most people who think "anarchy" is cool don't even know that it is, in fact, a sociopolitical philosophy. They think it just means they get to do whatever they want.

Anarchism at its core is based on the presumption that all human beings, when left with no ruler, will peaceful naturally live in peace and harmony. This philosophy is entirely naive.

Anarchism - what does it mean?

Anachism is a being free and rejecting all forms of control. To live in a world of anarchist is not a world of war nor peace. It is a world of humans where no one is perfect. Anarchism rejects all forms of religon and the control which limits our ability to be unique and to truely be ourselves.

anarchism is not about fighting the government. its about fighting for yourself, but not against each other

Anarchism - meaning

Where we are headed when we realize just how useless the state and capitalism are.

People object that murderers and thiefs will ruin anarchism, but I think those people get off on hurting others and would gladly support the state if it gave them a chance to hurt others, except that they'll die when they try to declare war on the anarchists and lose due to their stupidity.

Anarchism - definition

A non-hierarchical society in which private property and the division of classes is abolished and the world is comprised of autonomous collectives containing no authority.
Anarchism differs from other ideologies on the left such as socialism, specifically in terms of how the social transformation from capitalism - which in Marxism theory is the last stage of class society - to a communistic society will actually occur.
Proponents of the anarchist doctrine look to the immediate abolition of the state as essential towards the transformation from class society to anarchist society, in which only then can true human liberation and democracy flourish. This often comes in the form of abstention from mainstream political engagement altogether. This usually leads to the rejection of electoralism or parliamentarianism as a means of achieving change. Most anarchists seek to create an immediate version of what human society is supposed to look like in the future. This often comes in the form of non-hierarchical organizations, communes, affinity groups, and so on. Socialists on the other hand see the existence of a revolutionary workers party as indispensible towards building a new society. Socialists also favor parliamentarianism as a tool towards heightening the consciousness of the worker.
There are different versions to the anarchist doctrine such as anarcho-syndicalism, anarcho-libertarianism, anarcho-communism, etc.
Anarchism as an ideology is said to have gone back to as far as the early 18th century with thinkers such as William Godwin. Other following theorists such as Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, Mikhail Bakunin, Emma Goldman and most recently Murray Bookchin have all added a substantial amount of knowledge to the anarchist tradition.
There are hardly any mass anarchist organizations in the US currently, although there has been a recent revival in anarchist ideas, predominantly among student activists. Groups such as Students For A Democratic Society, and the recent creation of the NYMAA (New York Metro Anarchist Alliance) are all signs of a new wave of anarchist activity to come.
Anarchism in times of dormancy, can become confined to its lifestyle variations. Vegans, vegetarians, consumer boycotters, and individuals comprising the animal liberation and anti-globalization movements tend to look to anarchist ideas as a way to shape society.
Throughout history, the anarchist doctrine has always been a idea espoused by people who were generally outside of the realms of mass industrial production such as doctors, lawyers, craftsmen, artisans, etc. These days, anarchism has seen its revival in the punk rock movement, which contains mostly white middle class surburban teens and young adults. It has never really deterred from that particular socio-economic level, at least not in the advanced capitalist countries.

Anarchism reflects the politics of impatience.

Anarchism

Anarchism is the belief that authority is unnecessary and harmful. Anarchists oppose the unearned privilege of the upper class, the virtual domestication of humanity, and the absurd notion that Bush is better qualified than you are to run your own life. Anarchism is generally considered a form of socialism that rejects the state as well as capitalism, but some anarchists, particularly primitivists and post-left anarchists, are hard to classify as socialist, per se.

Anarchism has been given a bad name by its associations with wanton violence, punk music, and so on. However, none of these are inherently tied to anarchism (some anarchists have even been pacifists). Nonetheless, the image of the anarchist as a wantonly anti-social rebel has been exploited by many clothing lines and punk bands attempting to cash in on the image.

Anarchism is often confused with ochlocracy, nihilism, objectivism and other forms of laissez faire capitalism, and Nietzscheanism. However, it should be noted that anarchism is, with few exceptions, socialist and consistantly anti-capitalist. While some anarchists do come off as rather nihilistic, the idea itself is not necessarily part of anarchism. Obviously, as well, Nietzscheanism and anarchism have little in common since Nietzsche was a stauch supporter of hierarchy and a defender of slavery.

Common symbols of anarchism include the circle A and the black flag. Well-known anarchists include Emma Goldman, Alexander Berkman, and Peter Kropotkin.

If you want the truth, I suggest you look into the books on anarchism, such as Kropotkin's Conquest of Bread.
