I remember Ayn Rand describing Anarchy as a 'floating abstraction.' It took a long time to figure out what she meant.
These anarchists' methods and objectives provide a clue. They hope to create a state of general disorder that will serve to bring down civil society.
Such a state happened before when the Roman Empire collapsed. In the state of anarchy that followed, those with the most weapons -- and willingness to use them -- eventually established the next world order: the Dark Ages.
A state of anarchy can only be temporary -- that's what makes it a floating abstraction. It is a brief transition period like an explosion. What follows is always tyranny. Once again, the Left is showing that it is not 'progressive.' Every one of its various sub-objectives serves to deliver us to an Orwellian medieval period.
These Luddite 'monkey wrench' groups aspire to be amongst the barbarians who will be used to bring down Western civilization to pave the way toward a tyrannical Utopia.
Good explanation, but there are always other factors at work to contribute to the vaccum of societal order.
Excellent post!!
