I Bring All Things Back to Anarchism

in anarchy •  7 years ago  (edited)

It was anarchism that brought me all things, so I bring all things back to anarchism.

It was anarchism that brought me to Bitcoin, and Bitcoin that brought me to Steemit.

It was anarchism that prompted me to disregard what the teacher had told me to read, and to haphazardly turn the page to Ralph Waldo Emerson's "Self-Reliance."

It is anarchism that allows me to sit in the barber's chair, as he runs a straight razor across my neck. I don't know him, and there is no state around to stop him, should he wish to end my life.

It was anarchism that brought me into this world. In a word, nature.

it is anarchism that brings me out of this world. In a word, death.

It is anarchism that brings me out of the shackles of religious thinking, and into real world awareness, gratitude, and logic.

It is anarchism when I drive down the highway, and I do not swerve at the other cars, and they do not swerve at me. Is it the presence of a state stopping them from doing so?

It is anarchism that allows mega-rich, globalist elitists to carry on their structures of shadow power absent any official governing body. Freedom can be used for darkness, too.

Life itself, is anarchy. There is no "ruler of life." There are only natural laws. If you don't want to die, don't walk off of that cliff. Gravity doesn't care.

If you don't want a violent society, don't use systems that depend on violence. This is very simple.

Running is anarchism for me, in that I am a single man going my own way at my own speed.

I bring all things back to anarchism, because it is anarchism that brings me all things.

Without it, no natural order is possible, only synthetically imposed violence and chaos.

"Anarchy is all around us. Without it, our world would fall apart. All progress is due to it. All order extends from it. All blessed things that rise above the state of nature are owned to it. The human race thrives only because of the lack of control, not because of it. I’m saying that we need ever more absence of control to make the world a more beautiful place. It is a paradox that we must forever explain." - Jeffrey Tucker

Excellent post @kafkanarchy84
Anarchism gives me the guts to power down my steem & power up when I earn more...
For me it is anarchism that makes me make love unprotected not knowing the outcome...😱
It is nothing but anarchism that makes me join a flight thousands of feet above the skies looking out of d window and say...what the hell...if this shit falls into the ocean then what...😶
It is but anarchism that allows me to follow d rules...read this great post...gives this great steemian a follow...upvote and invited him to my blog where I eat frog meat and use pee as organic fertilizer😏

Well said. Anarchism brought me to BTC and cryptos as well. The rest is history. Thanks for sharing.

Nicely put @kafkanarchy84. Anarchy has much more of a success story than people give it credit for.

Very true, and well said!

The elites need to go.

Wonderful post dear @kafkanarchy84 I liked it very much
Let me know the essence of anarchism and Is anarchy supporting direct democracy?

Life itself, is anarchy. There is no "ruler of life." There are only natural laws. If you don't want to die, don't walk off of that cliff. Gravity doesn't care.

Words that struck a chord with me!

Absolutely golden post. This is why I love this community <3

Excellent post very on point

A lot of wisdom and truth there... I always worry, though, that "functional" anarchism requires a level of intelligence, insight and self-awareness most people simply don't possess... I have met very few from "the people of WalMart" who could be considered anarchists. Then again, maybe I am just too idealistic...

All it takes is a deprogrammed recognition that stealing is wrong,and a willingness to take said recognition to its final, logical conclusion.

I read a post where a guy was arguing that laws kept people from killing eachother. I proceeded to ask him where he lived and explained if its only law that keeps you doing good than I dont want to be anyhwere near you >< haha.

Yep! Stay the hell away from that town!!! :)

The shift is real.

Thanks for the interesting read!

A very impressive post about some your real feelings as an "anarchist "...I am very much inspired the above stanza "if you don't want violent.. "yes, of course if we want to deny violence then should reject the system which are related with violent... Thanks for sharing your views...

it seems anarchy is natures gift - well written my friend

Upvoted. I'm going to resteem this now :)

Cheers.

Wow dude. This is on point. I can so relate to this; from BTC to Steemit to how I now view religion. Thanks for this gem.

It's interesting to see how diffrent people have different paths to the same, undeniable truth. I saw religion for what it is before crytos came about, but only came to fully realize that statism is a religion a couple years ago.

I think that statism is so all-pervasive, many almost can't even begin to see it as a religion, which it undeniably is. Kudos to you, my friend, for being exceptional. Thanks for the comments, guys. I really enjoy reading them.

I thought I was alone on statism. I am not certain if you agree, but I think statism is arguably more dangerous than traditional religion, at least in the 21st century. And many of my so-called liberal and conservative friends don't seem to get it.

Thank you man. Glad to hear that.

Its your life you can ride it according to you....its you yourself can tribute to anything for anything....here anarchism giving you the status of life......no matter what makes you what you are but realizing the root is important...and you realized it .....

You are not only single here as anrchyist, you have that power to make things positive, you had already opened our eyes and realized us that how the system had playing it's game from time immemorial. Yes every individual is the greatest authority of its own. He has the potential to make things better for him. Thanks for sharing such a beautiful post with reasons. Thanks.

That's true. The community here is great. And I agree, "every individual is the greatest authority of its own. He has the potential to make things better for him." Thanks for the powerful comment!

if u wanna be a philosopher, first thing u need to do is Be RICH

Whatever cocoas your cola !!! Great post !!'

Excelente post, pero tristemente la concepción de la anarquía para muchos no va dirigida al buen uso de la libertad, sin embargo, no deja de ser realidad tus comentarios.

I want to see people let their guard down a little bit, too. I'm setting my self free, but I know where the cliff ends and practice never ends... @kafkanarchy84 of #steemcityniigata opening up thick skulls around the world.
