   Quickly, I need something to carve into a tree for a background gag.

         @abigpony the funny thing about anarchy having a symbol is that by giving anarchy a symbol, that gives it an order and therefore it is no longer anarchy.

            @derpy128 anarchy is lack of central leadership. Until the symbol is used as a source of leadership, it's just a symbol that represents the ideology.

               @abigpony yes, but a true anarchy has no rules, and therefore it can not have a symbol.

                  @derpy128 A symbol isn't a rule

                     @abigpony i symbol implies that it has some form or structure. anarchy has none of those.

                        @derpy128 anarchy has a single structure consisting of the all as opposed to the few as other political structures are. A symbol may be used to unify, but it shows nothing of a leadership. It's not a rule to use it either.

                           @abigpony the definition of anarchy is the lack of government or structure whatsoever, so therefore your argument makes no sense. i think what you described there is Libertarianism.

                              @derpy128 anarchy is "the lack of publicly enforced government or violently enforced political authority." by promoting self-governing, it creates a state ruled by the whole of the individuals involved. Unorganized "chaos". It lacks structure, but by lacking structure, it creates a structure. A complete lack of structure theoretically impossible.

                                 @abigpony so what you are talking about is Libertarianism.

                                 @abigpony Wait, you mean it's more than kids in ripped jeans and funny hairstyles complaining about the principal's office!?

                                    @scribus with anarchism, THERE ARE NO PRINCIPALS!

                                       @abigpony yes, but in your definition of anarchy the principals could be the self appointed government people.

                                          @derpy128 it was really a joke, but not really. Anarchism has no positions, no centralized structure for things like education and whatnot. A principal would imply leadership over another individual wherein it would become a void role.

         @abigpony @derpy128 and therefore a true anarchy sign is an ambiguous squiggle.
