First, I walk around with Anti-Flag shirts. I support the band they are my favorite band, and can you please explain to me how that makes me think im cool? Its a shirt for a band. No different from a Misfits shirt or a Dead Kennedys shirt.

Secondly, maybe you should do a little research before posting, as the members of Anti-Flag are not Anarchists.

hey SOMEVERYDAYNOBODY, Good script, you put the whole thing into perspective. I have always held Anarchism up as an ideal, not just an excuse to bust rich peoples windows. People will use a political theory to justify lots of different actions, it is up to the people engaged in those actions to justify those actions to their fellow humans.

I don't want to look totally ignorant here, but, what the hell is the difference between communism and anacharism? They look pretty much the same to me! Well, ok... They ARE known by different names.

While anarchism claims that the workers should be in control of everything through the members elected to a council, so did communism. Honestly, as much as I tried to draw a distinction between the two methods of government, I couldn't.

Are there any brave volunteers out there who would like to take me under their wing and explain anarchiam to me? Sorry! I guess I've just lived long enough to see communism at work... and I can't see any difference between that and anarchism.

Anyone want to enlighten me please? Explain anarchism to me.
