My morals and values are really just kinda absorbed by family friends society.

I'm an anarchist. In specific I think that our most profound miseries come from entrenched hierarchy and class and that the goodness of humanity is best achieved when we're on equal footing and build society and community towards a collective good. More practically I'm a syndicalist because I think unions are a good way to engage with these types of politics.

@Really God that 200 years of history books political struggle wars strikes revolts and organizing all just erased by some unlinked dictionary definition. Congratulations sir, I renounce my lawless ways. I am now a conservative.
@Really Anarchism is a political ideology with a long history and many different types but only few advocate for chaos and disorder.

@RebelliousSpirit I am not familiar with the chaos and disorder variant..

@RebelliousSpirit I guess there's a difference between anarchy as a condition, and Anarchism as an ideology or 'movement'. As between conservative in behaviour and Conservative in political allegiance.
