Which system prevents your neighbor from killing you and taking your stuff?
- Ajedi32 5mo agoBasically any system other than anarchy? In every civilized country I know of if your neighbor kills you then afterwards they'll be on the run from the law, not selling your house on Facebook marketplace the next day.
- platevoltage 5mo agoAnarchism does not mean that no rules or consequences exist in a society.
- Ajedi32 5mo agoAnarchism as "an extension of nature" certainly does mean that, as least assuming you've got more guns/muscle than the other guy. If you want to use a different definition of anarchism that includes a legal system and police force then that's not the kind of anarchism being discussed here.
