> Anarchists are simply people who believe human beings are capable of behaving in a reasonable fashion without having to be forced to.
I find this definition interesting because it seems to me there’s a very prevalent portrayal in media pointing towards the opposite, that is that humans left alone (read, without some powerful/wealthy authority) will unravel into the most depraved state imaginable.
Reading the book factuality was fascinating because it showed me a view of humans that you don’t see in mass media since ordinary is boring and thus we only get either extremes of good or bad (read, saving the Amazon rainforest to a mother killing her child)
Anarchy by this definition is hard to believe (although I aim to) because we are bombarder with the exceptions to the rule
