I don't think it's, I think it's an on or off switch.

What do you think, Phil?

No, but I would like them to read the Anarchist Handbook and learn more because just even though they still are not going to hear it, the Latin root doesn't really matter to them.

I can explain in 30 seconds.

But you can explain it in two words.

That's not explaining anything without rulers.

Yeah.

People don't understand how that's possible.

It's a personal worldview.

Exactly.

In the same way that people say, the joke is everyone's an atheist with one exception.

You don't believe in Zeus.

You don't believe in Thor, even if you believe in your one God.

If all of us went to another country where alcohol was illegal and someone was passing around a beer at a party, we would ask ourselves, do we want to drink?

What are the risks?

But at no point in our head are we like, well, the government says it's wrong, so we're not going to do it.

So anarchism is that approach to every government, including your own.

That's it.

It's what is willing to be enforced.

There's an essay in the Anarchist Handbook that says the myth of objective law, which addresses this exact point.
