I wasn't being sexist (and I don't think you were either), but there is some sort of "attention deficit disorder" in our current societies teenage girls and young adults.

Oh, I actually wasn't thinking about women/girls at all. Seriously, I wasn't. There are male camwhores too, you know.

I've read Chomsky on Anarchism and it was very good. although he supports some institutions as long as they are just and what the people want.

his stance on 9/11 is terrible. I feel it is to uphold his reputation in the educational circles and get rid of all the negative criticism. People ignore you once you explain that your own government was involved in the attack. He wants us to disregard who did it and focus on American imperialism. but obviously 911 truth would expose the fraud that is American world dominance.

Nonetheless I'm glad that such an influential person is promoting less government. He has done more for the movement than anyone alive today that i can think of, and rather convincingly so.

Im not sure i like Chomsky. His own research confirms corporations need the state and anarchists have always been screwed over when collaborating with marxists but despite this claims the state can be used to break up concentrations of private power.

That said he's done some pretty good work on foreign policy.
The Anarchists are simply unterrified Jeffersonian Democrats. They believe that 'the best government is that which governs least,' and that which governs least is no government at all.
