My pen-name is Dean Striker of Arizona, writing from my 77 years of observing and experiencing the fallacies of opting to have Government(s) of Force imposed upon humanity.

Right off the bat, I am disliking this editor, making everything "Header" text while accepting nothing else and being unable to Format.

I arrived here because I had hit the Wikipedia article on Anarchy, obviously written by someone who believes somehow that Humans must be Governed. A spin artist of the worst order!

So I wrote the following, and attempted to insert and post that in a most appropriate place

=== What is the correct definition of "anarchy"? ===

⦁ The word "anarchy" is from the Greek, prefix an (or a), meaning "not," "the want of," "the absence of," or "the lack of", plus archos, meaning "a ruler," "director", "chief," "person in charge," or "authority." Thus anarchy means "having no government" or "being without a government," as can be seen, the strict, their original definition of anarchism was simply "no government." ⦁ "An-archy" means "without a ruler," or more generally, "without authority," and it is in this sense that anarchists have continually used the word. For anarchists, anarchy means not necessarily the "absence of order", as spun by the unthinking opponents, but rather merely the "Absence of Rule and thus Rulers". ⦁ Good source is http://www.spunk.org/texts/intro/faq/sp001547/secA1.html -- One of so few! ⦁ Therefore, by it's original definition, "Anarchy" means nothing more. This renders everything else within this Wiki post merely misdirection and nonsense. The definition does not in any way include collectivism in any form, nor "chaos", nor does it mean "absence of law and order". Without Government, coll === What does the correct definition of "anarchy"? === ⦁ The word "anarchy" is from the Greek, prefix an (or a), meaning "not," "the want of," "the absence of," or "the lack of", plus archos, meaning "a ruler," "director", "chief," "person in charge," or "authority."

Without Government, collectivism would not be paid for by theft via taxation and by redistribution, so collectivism could exist only for it's voluntary contributors -- we can expect those to be few to none. ⦁ Thus anarchy naturally conforms to the The Non-Agression Principle, per a brief and simple video I have republished at http://no-ruler.net/nap-axiom/. The principles therein clearly reject all Governments of Force. ⦁ ectivism would not be paid for by theft via taxation and by redistribution, so collectivism could exist only for it's voluntary contributors -- we can expect those to be few to none. ⦁ Thus anarchy naturally conforms to the The Non-Agression Principle, per a brief and simple video I have republished at http://no-ruler.net/nap-axiom/.
