I only work with the official definition of anarchy: absence of government or political authority.
Sophistry is for faggots.

In practice, anarchy defaults to tribalism (a community of families) and roaming warlords.

@[email protected] So not the chaos definition most use but I agree with you none the less.

No, I don't put my own bias into words. They have their own meaning and we should respect it or that language becomes impossible to be used.

The chaos definition of anarchy has another name from what I know, lawlessness or misrule, maybe even strife depending on the root causes of the situation. But not anarchy.

@[email protected] those would be better words but I've seen so many misuse anarchy for that concept. This is why the term volunteerism came into being. It's simlar with the concepts of private and public ownership.

@dwarvenallfather
Fair enough. I see people misuse words all the time, usually because they input their own bias into them. A terrible example is nihilism - it's hard for people to grasp the true meaning of the world, it got corrupted by Christians and other zealots too much.

I personally don't believe in volunteerism, never did. Everyone should be compensated financially for any of their work, otherwise it's exploitation. The only exception is within a family (husband, wife and their kids).

@[email protected] yeah, language is too fluid and I think that's been encouraged by the power hungry.
