Oh no, Anarchists!

Anti-anarchist pretty much think

• Anarchy = chaos

This is heavily promoted by mainstream media and language

• Anarchists are pacifist

Many people seem unable to comprehend how a community might defend itself without a standing military and so assume we must be unwilling to defend ourselves.

• Nothing can be accomplished without coercion

Because most of us have grown up within strict hierarchies coerced to do things we don't want, we have trouble imagining any other way.

• Everyone is inherently a selfish asshole

This is probably projection in most cases
