i like this one

"In common with the founders of Socialism, Anarchists demand the abolition of all economic monopolies and the common ownership of the soil and all other means of production, the use of which must be available to all without distinction; for personal and social freedom is conceivable only on the basis of equal economic advantages for everybody. Within the Socialist movement itself the Anarchists represent the viewpoint that the war against capitalism must be at the same time a war against all institutions of political power, for in history economic exploitation has always gone hand in hand with political and social oppression. The exploitation of man by man and the domination of man over man are inseparable, and each is the condition of the other."

im trying to figure it out. anarchy can be fuzzy. to me, in its purest sense it could solve all problems, but its such a delicate system that unless everyone was on board 100% it could be so easily corrupted. well, in a lot of ways democracy is the same. any political system really. communism too...its so borderline that anyone that tries to exploit it can with ease. which is sad, and scary, but i think that says a message that no matter what governmental system you believe in...they're all fragile and thats why everyone needs to be in unity and in understanding of that system...i like complicated thoughts, complicated art, complicated music, i appreciate many complex things, but i think that government, society, spirituality, life even, all of it, it doesn't make sense unless its the simple logical truth. every truth is simple. thats another reason that our democracy seems a little off kilter...its so unbelieveably complicated, and is it working that well? every person should represent themselves, not through someone else.
logic is the truth of life...doesn't karma make sense? doesn't individuality make sense? doesn't peace make sense? when you break it down...and i mean really, chip away at it until you find what it truly stands for...it all makes crystal clear sense. in my opinion, this should be applied to everything.
our democracy has let the fundemental ideas slip away...they weren't perfect when it started, but in all optimism there could have been someone down the line who could inspire future politicians to see the true possibility in this system. its a logical and fair system, but in current times it has gotten so out of hand bizarre...candidates have to buy their way in! its a simple fact that doesn't surprise many anymore just because its the norm. but that is horrifying.
thats why at this point, anarchy seems the soloution...as long as everyone could agree to work towards acheiving a common goal. that goal being fulfillment of life for every human. phrase it as it fits, but i think everyone wants to live their individual lives in complete freedom.
