Oh brother. I have every expectation that if I repeated what I posted to this list to any of my anarchist friends, they would agree with me.

Some of you are just uncomfortable with this, because you cling to liberal beliefs that the political system can be changed by electing leaders into office who reflect your beliefs.

How is that working out for the planet?

I'll argue that my position on the beautiful demise of heads of state is a very humanitarian vision. I want to live on a planet where there aren't any more governments, states, or idiots who want to rule over people.
