Twelve Reasons We Need to Strike Syria Now:

[Fantastic Anarchist]

93. No one is crowning anyone anarchists.

First, let's make this clear, two people out of the list I provided didn't necessarily refer to themselves as anarchists (Thoreau and Whitman) in the modern political sense. Secondly, they espoused ideas that are anarchist in nature (which I've quoted). Many "modern" anarchists look to them as their influence. Jesus was a Jew who now influences Christians. Jesus, though, was not a Christian. Same with Karl Marx; Marxists are influenced by Marx, and they use his writings and ideas to form their political/social philosophy, yet, Marx never referred to himself as a Marxist.

Zeno, the ancient Greek, lived and taught anarchist ideas, yet he never referred to himself as an anarchist (at least, not that I know of, but I could be wrong).

But let's get back to something besides your red herring. You took approximately 15 seconds to respond to a post about something you clearly don't know about, and then have the audacity to tell me that I didn't list anyone who actually called themselves anarchists? How do you know if you didn't even read the post, which you've admitted to?

Is this what you call debate? The exchange of ideas? Is it that I'm just to accept what you say, but when you ask me for sources, which took me quite a bit of time (you know, doing your work for you), you dismiss it?

Are you embarrassed?

Pffttttt!
