@KarlHeinzHasliP @randahl Yeah, those bombings are war crimes, not anarchy. Anarchy would be far kinder.

@courtcan @KarlHeinzHasliP @randahl The problem is that the same word has two completely different meanings in different usages. There's the sort of anarchy in which structures of authority are unnecessary, which is positive... and then there's the sort of anarchy in which structures of authority are necessary but broken or missing, which is not positive at all.

It's less of a problem when you understand that the second sort of anarchy was manufactured by authoritarians to bag on anarchy, and isn't real. It's like how there are two different sorts of African American: a human being, and a ni—except there isn't two. There's only one, and the other is propaganda.
