Anarchism

NOT as many people think simply not having a government and hierachy, but a PEACEFUL HARMOIOUS state where people are educated to think for themselves.
Most people see this as unworkable because they don't see the second half. Afghanistan, for example is not properly anarchic, as warlords etc still fight to control land. If only they could see how much happier we'd all be if we got along and took time to understand each other....

Basically most common sense is supported by anarchism : Free thought, listening to other people's opinions, pacifism, lack of oppression etc

wheelchair anarchist

(n.) A person, usually male between the ages of 25 and 50 (but often over 50) who believes the government is out to get him. Constantly complains, whines and makes false and slanderous comments about politicians, owns several firearms, and vehemently anti-nazi, and will blindly follow any cause to the death, unaware of the eventual consequences of thier cause prevailing (which they know it never will). Believes that thier lack of education and hatred for 'the rich' and 'the authorities' is compensated by thier age, experience, stubborn beliefs, "common sense", ignorance of past statistics (though they often manipulate facts and figures to suit thier cause) and the fact that they can convince children of thier beliefs. Schooled in any arguement by even teenagers who actually know what they are talking about, and are learnéd in the matter. When beaten in a debate by a much younger person, they will claim that the person has been 'reading too many magazine that are full of what THEY want you to hear', which basically means you are smarter than they are, but they will claim everything you said is a lie because you have attained it from an unreliable source.

The name is a reference to the fact they will claim to have practical experience, but it always seems to be so long ago (giving them an excuse for getting facts wrong).


Usually from a working class background, and often located in the north of england (although many still from the united states), and generally in the upper qaurtile of the age range. Adored by pseudo-intellectuals and poser anarchists alike. Likely to either be very athiest, or deeply christian. Openly homophobic or homosexual.

"If the government wants my guns, they can take my ammunition first" said the wheelchair anarchist before rolling off 100 more cliché catchphrases.

Bubblegum Anarchists

Kids who think they are anarchists because its cool, but they don't actually have enough balls to go out and commit anarchy or crimes.

-"Did you hear those kids talking about breaking into their school and lighting it on fire after they graffiti everything?"

-"Yeah...they're Bubblegum Anarchists. They're just trying to look cool. They won't actually do it."

poser anarchist

Someone, normally suburban middle-class teenagers or students, who thinks anarchism is a good idea because its 'anti-capitalist'. If these kids knew a damn thing about capitalism they'd know what laissez-faire was and that the idea of a society which completely depends on survival of the fittest and most intelligent and with no boundaries to their actions (bad aswell as good) would be pure-capitalism.

Any anarchist who isn't also a nihlist is a poser anarchist.
