EDITORS NOTE: FR33 Agents is looking for an “anarchy editor” to blog about current happenings in the march toward a voluntary society. If you are interested please e-mail me. Welcome to this edition of weekend anarchy:
- If you are in the Washington, DC area on the 8th of March at 8:08PM, join me and other anarchists for Anarchy Hour (Facebook).
- Congrats to Mike Gogulski who surrendered his US passport and is no longer a citizen of any country.
- Sadly, Sunni is closing Sunni’s Salon but leaves with an interview of aforementioned Mike.
- Interested in trading with other agorists who will practice counter-economics with you? Sunni has compiled a list.
- ALLiance: A Journal of theory and strategy is in beta and aims to be a quarterly journal of left libertarian theory and action.
- As a lifehacker geek and a radical I love Time Management for Anarchists.
- Portland’s KBOO Radiozine recently talked with Shawn Wilbur and William Gillis about Market Anarchism: Government regulation and the financial crisis.
- According to the Mises Institute, the A-Team were anarcho-capitalists. I pity the statist fool. [Spectre Footnotes]
- From Hate the State: It’s Good for You!: [Liberty Pile]
In short, the State is a criminal organization which wages murder and corruption domestically and internationally, functioning always this way despite what group controls it. Policy and rhetoric changes here and there are ultimately irrelevant.
Violence is the State’s NATURE. It is inherently corrupt.
Yet we perpetuate it.
We as people naturally desire to have things within our society improved. This is natural as we are social animals that wish to survive, and therefore, in many respects, cooperate with one another. Those in the State, and those who support it, claim that the organization is what manifests when people cooperate in the larger social climate. While this claim bears truth, it also secretly inserts a lie, namely, that the State, and better yet, democracy, is the best we can do. That we need not aspire to better alternatives.
The truth is we do not need violence for bridges and roads. We do not need violence to have schools. We do not need violence to have health care. That is the core fallacy of the State: violence against one another is necessary in order to have goods and services.
and concludes with this remedy:
Stop voting, donate to charity, volunteer with private charity organizations, and look for every moment of your life that is untouched by the State and EXPLOIT it.
Maximize freedom, eliminate the State.
