      ^^ Okay, then, dumb fucks and academicians aside, what is the definition of anarchy that you believe is the actual , current, and accurate one?

      I'm sure your definition will help with the conversation, perhaps offering a solid baseline, so why not offer it up, rather than tell us all we are wrong for citing actual sources (including a well-known anarchist, who you seem to dismiss as a dumb fuck). I'm also not seeing the bad stuff we've inserted into the definition, so if you'd like to share that too, go right ahead...

      I do seldomly post - I might add that I also frequently find myself dissenting from UM’s positions; however I must acquiesce my unfamiliarity to him, so I am amenable to any areas where we perhaps agree.

      "the name given to a principle of theory of life and conduct under which society is conceived without government - harmony in such a society being obtained, not by submission to law, or by obedience to any authority, but by free agreements concluded between various groups, territorial and professional, freely constituted for the sake of production and consumption, as also for the satisfaction of the infinite variety of the needs and aspirations of a civilized being..."
      The definition posted by Denziloe is suffice and the Wikipedia link below provides a rather lettered definition of anarchism as Cmind has posted.

      I would entirely concur with the need of contextualizing and semantically defining philosophies - or whatever it may be - and everyone seems to desire the same thing. So lets work with the aforementioned definitions and engage in a dialectical conversation regarding anarchism (if anything).
