Misconception:
Anarchism = Chaos
- Begs the question.
- Anarchists contend that it is the State that creates chaos with wars, violations of rights, regulation of consentual human activity, and in short, interference in the natural harmonies of society.
- Contra the statist bromide, anarchists think that larger populations make centralized control even more chaotic, destructive, and onerous. (E.g. communes vs. command economies.)
