Anarchism is one of the most misunderstood philosophies. Even more than libertarianism. I see a massive difference in response when I describe it vs use the label. Most think of masked men throwing molitov cocktails. Over the years I have found many anarchists through the years and they are not throwing anything. Cool people. Smart people. Curious people. People that look at the world and think something is not right.

The shortest explainion I like is "No rulers, not no rules".

I may not fit the mold but I agree with most anarchists on most things. As a Christian this puts me in a special category with my brothers in Christ. But there have been many Christian anarchists through the years. It aligns just fine with Jesus teaching IMO.

I often tell my fellow believers I have "no King but Christ". The modern state seems to me to be a religious system of its own. But that's a whole over topic.
