Anarchism is the philosophy that Power should be opposed and removed wherever possible. The extent to which it is believed power should be removed varies from person to person. To think why anarchism good actually we need to know what power is and why we oppose it.
Power is the ability to limit or provide choices to someone. A government can set laws in place to remove choices or repeal laws to allow choices. School Uniforms (Dress codes for countries without uniforms) limit the choices of what pupils can wear, Hate Speech limits someones choices of how they can be seen socially or how they see themselves, social norms and stigmas remove choices for some. Physical Violence, being punched in the fave, takes away the choices of what happens to our bodies.
Violence is taking away someones choices, Murder takes away every choice available to someone,. Structural Violence is also violence. If someone breaks a law they first face physical violence from the police officers, then structural violence of the jail system.
If power is the ability to limit or expand someones available choices, and Violence is taking away someones choices, At least half of power is Violence.
Violence enforces Power , if you don't wear the school uniform, they use the violence of ISS or Detention, break sociatal norms of gender, expression, sexuality or any number of things, Society isolates you, social violence, rumors, disonformation , Break the rules, step out of line, Violence is what stops you.
Anarchism good actually because why should anyone have power over anyone else? I do admit that some Power and Violence for the worst things are necessary. Murderers and the worst sorts of crimes should still be punished. However why should another person have power over the way I live, what I do with my body, what I wear, what I make, how I act?
Some local power is necessary, parents should punish children, otherwise you get feral monsters, the worst sorts should be punished #Bring back Ceffyl Pren. But Why can Adolescence be told by school how to dress, when to go to the toilet? Why can Jobs have Power over certain number of timed toilet breaks?. Why can Apple, Google, Microslop, and other Tech companies, and data brokers have Power over My data and My devices #Linux4ever.
SO maybe, maybe, anarchism good actually :3
