    I can’t imagine the depths of arrogance and ignorance it requires to say that a political theory centuries in the making, with countless theorists writing lengthy tomes on the subject, has nothing to it.

    I can quite easily summarise what it is, though. People self organising with no hierarchy. If you want it even simpler, anarchy is not having a ruler or leader; you can glean that just from the construction of the word, “an” (without) ,“archy” (rule), literally, “without a ruler”. There you go! I very much doubt you’ve talked to any anarchists, if you’ve never heard any say that. If you have, you certainly didn’t listen.

    Mikhail Bakunin

    Noam Chomsky

    Pierre-Joseph Proudhon

    Emma Goldman

    Peter Kropotkin

    Just a few names for you to look into, in the field that has no consistent theory, because no one knows what it is.
