Welcome to the convention about overthrowing the "Man". Our first guest speaker will be smitty for his success at overthrowing the the Hatrack Supreme Court, the Hatrack Congress, and the Hatrack City Court.

Please welcome, smitty. [Smile]

:silence:

Smitty?

Come on! Where are my Anarchist bretheren?
 
Posted by Princess Leah (Member # 6026) on :
 
The internet is a government conspiracy. I think your bretheren have realized that, and therefore are no longer anarchists.

Like most sane, rational people. *challenging look*
 
Posted by Advent 115 (Member # 8914) on :
 
What are you implying Leah?
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
That you no longer have any anarchist allies.
 
Posted by Princess Leah (Member # 6026) on :
 
And that advocating anarchy is playing right into the man's hands.
 
Posted by Advent 115 (Member # 8914) on :
 
?

I didn't think that Anarchists could have allies, that would imply some form of a command structure.
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
Allies ARE brethren. You should be more careful about your phrasing.
 
Posted by Advent 115 (Member # 8914) on :
 
This is true...
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
See, I worked circles of logic around you.
 
Posted by Advent 115 (Member # 8914) on :
 
Very nice Steve. :clapping:
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
It was, wasn't it?
 
Posted by Advent 115 (Member # 8914) on :
 
Yes, yes it was.

Real anarchists work within the system, building it up in such a way it will implode.

Real anarchists already do whatever they wish, because laws only matter when the men with guns are in front of you.

Real anarchists need no laws other than those in their heart. Either they would not run out and buy cocaine or murder someone were those legalized tomorrow, or they are already sniffing, shooting, and removing the blood from their hands and noses.

Real anarchists have no use for graffiti or that ridiculous A in a circle.

Real anarchists do not readily admit to being such.

Real anarchists do not waste their time making lists; they have actual work to do.

I gave up being an anarchist a long time ago. I view it as impossible; there will always be someone who wants to initiate force. It is a case of rule or be ruled, with no other options, so I choose to attempt to rule, albeit with little success so far. At least I retain the principle that I am already free.

I'm not an anarchist.

"Baby, I'm an anarchist and you're a spineless liberal . . ."

Who is this guy??? Why do I keep on seeing references to the Hatrack Surpreme Court, etc? Where did this start?
 
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
 
So here I am in my suit of shiny medieval armor and my laser gun when....

oh wait...

I thought this was a thread for Anachronists.

Never mind.

Just go on about your duties,

or not if your an anarchist.

I don't know. I'm just defending my good *cough* name.
 
Posted by Swampjedi (Member # 7374) on :
 
Dan_raven, you should be in the world of Serenity.

Cowboys... innnn spaaaace!
 
Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :
 
Took me forever to realize what the word "anachronistic" meant. Not today mind you, but I kept on reading it in books and thinking "Now what could that mean?" until I finally used some of the limited brain power I possess and figured it out. Since then I've used it in abundance, much to the annoyance of my friends. mwhaha.

oh, and Katarain, it all started one dark night ...
 
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
 
Swamp, I would join the universe of Serenity, but I have this tendancy to be "a leaf in the wind", and that isn't as great of an advantage as I once thought.
 
Posted by Swampjedi (Member # 7374) on :
 
Ehhh, no. Not unless your name is Spike.
 
Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :
 
Ouch. That was heartless.
 
Posted by Anti-Chris (Member # 4452) on :
 
Can I join?

My first motion is to organize our group of fellow anarchist into a council to protect each other.
 
Posted by Swampjedi (Member # 7374) on :
 
Yeah, heartless. That describes it perfectly.

Man, why can't you be as clever as I am? ( [Wink] I'm just joshing you!)

Don't know about anarchy, but I think we need an apathy society.

Or not.

Who cares...
 
Posted by SteveRogers (Member # 7130) on :
 
People keep telling me that I'm too apathetic. And, despite the fact I'm not, I reply, "Yeah, whatever."
 
Posted by dantesparadigm (Member # 8756) on :
 
Is anyone seriously advocating anarchy, I just want to ask before I get indignant and then laughed at.
 
Posted by Noemon (Member # 1115) on :
 
No.
 
Posted by Blayne Bradley (Member # 8565) on :
 
I never liked Anarchy, it simply means mob rule with no overal benefit to society and as well as being an impossibility.
 
Posted by smitty (Member # 8855) on :
 
In general, it's a bad idea.
 
Posted by Kwea (Member # 2199) on :
 
Stop trying to force our opinion on that on me...


Kat, those threads were made most by newer people, and are highly self-referential. [Big Grin]


Don't worry, you didn't miss much.
 
Posted by Advent 115 (Member # 8914) on :
 
Whatever you guys decide, I'm only going to observe. I'm not going to get intangled in another mess. So have fun. [Smile]

*sigh of relief*
I thought the seperatists were gathering.
