While both groups have demonstrated their share of violence, not all Anarchists are violent (something that’s rarely true for neo-Nazis though). There are a lot of Anarchists who are into Anarchism for their simple wish of having their community ran by its Free People, who believe in the basic ideology behind Anarchism (minimized or no government/police/currency), and they don’t go out of their way to burn cars or beat others.

While Anarchism can’t work as it stands right now, I do believe that it’s an ideology that we should be trying to approach as much as we can. It’s about liberty and freedom, ideals that I believe everyone should be fighting for. But ultimately, it’s about trust. Anarchism trusts the human being to be self-governable and fair to all of its dealings, while Nazism doesn’t. Nazism feels that humans can’t be trusted to do anything right, hence requiring draconian laws, government, police, and military to keep everyone in check.

As with everything, the truth is somewhere in the middle. Some humans can be trusted, some can’t, while most humans can be trusted for some things, but not for other things. But definitely we can’t condemn all the citizens to Nazism just because of some bad eggs. Which is why I believe that politically, a centrist-liberal position that yields towards Social-Anarchism is the best approach for our times. Maybe when society is more mature (or more connected via technological means), a more solid step towards Freedom can be attempted. But no matter what, the Nazi ideology has no place in the modern world.

The idea came to me in a dream 2-3 nights ago. For those who didn’t get any clues by checking the picture, this is Alice, of “Alice in Wonderland” fame. Only, it’s a very twisted version of the famous book. Look at the objects carefully and think of what (or who) they could represent!

The collage could be interpreted in various ways: not only as Alice winning the Queen, but also thinking hard if she should replace her as the new Evil Queen! Or, for those who never read the book, this could be some poor Alice in the modern world, pondering if she should wear the outfit, and… I’ll leave the interpretation open on this one.

My worst collage so far. It just doesn’t work, no matter what I try with it.
