Government just needs a rebrand! A fresh look! A little pizazz to liven up the room! Let's call it The Super Awesome Fun People Who Do Stuff Together

#101 jokes aside I think that if it was all with these funny names much more people would be interested in politics

I think they wouldn’t.

I think money might work because people would probably come to an agreement to stick with their currency.

Also, I don’t think you’ve replied to the other arguments against anarchy.

Abtectous
The only arguments here against anarchy are: “people are evil and rotten, the government is the pure existence of our morals and without it society cannot function.” Sounds like what the government wants you to think.
AG120502

I do not claim that either of those.

No, but these are the arguments you are being given, that anarchy won’t work because people will ruin it.
Guess what? Government doesn’t work becuase people ruin it.

I’m merely pointing out that much of human society requires organisation to function, and that by destroying several ones, it annihilates several important structures.

Certainly. Except here, there’s a disorganised, incompetent mass of people who have been charged with ensuring that justice is delivered, people’s quality of life and monitoring themselves.

Organization and government are too very different things.

I hate to say it, but the monkeys you see shouting on TV are convincing people to vote for them and no, politics isn’t simple. Those monkeys are effectively manipulating public opinion.

Abtectous
You never said simple?

It’s like 1984, but there’s no government. So you have a dictatorship where nobody has any power, ability or any way to keep their opponents in line, effectively. You’d rather willingly swap tyranny and structure for ‘freedom’ that is still tyranny for others and disorder.
