Oxymoron

Anarchy: (among other things) Absence of any cohesive principle, such as a common standard or purpose.

Oxymoron: the Anarchy online community.

I particularly liked the stuff about building an infrastructure on anarchist principles. One definition of infrastructure: the basic facilities and equipment needed for the functioning of a country. Note also these definitions of anarchy: the state of society where there is no law or supreme power, the absence of government.

Hey, at least you can't say I cocoon. Yay government!

And speaking of parallel systems... (BAD Government!)

http://www.kulture.org/scoop is not an anarchist - re "the absence of government" - but a "small-c" communist or big-s Socialist. Or some other Utopian type. In one post, some "tenets" of anarchy are defined as "democratic" and having "an ability to work [change] from within": huh? Or is this some satire, like the original Utopia?
