Anarchists Anonymous

The motto of Anarchists Anonymous is "One law is too many. A million are not enough." Their biggest resistance as a group comes not from anti anarchists, you may be interested to know, but from Alcoholics Anonymous. Who are threatening to use the law to force them to change their name and their slogan. Alcoholics Anonymous has no known policy regarding anarchy, one way or the other, either favoring it or being against it: adding to the irony of the resistance by Alcoholics Anonymous to Anarchists Anonymous. I have some dealings with this group, personally gravitating to anything passively anarchistic. There is active anarchy and passive anarchy. Active anarchy is "sabotage." Passive anarchy is "standing listlessly by while order falls into prevailing position." Why the two things even have the same name is something I have not as yet examined. They are existential opposites. 99% of the "higher educated" (meaning educated at a cost exceeding two hundred thousand dollars) have a desperate almost limbic resistance to the idea that human "society" is by its nature orderly and that it only becomes disordered, chaotic and bloody-throughout when laws are imposed by force by a gang. As opposed to rules imposed by "the owners." I am sure I have lost everyone at this point. If Anarchists Anonymous would change their name to just "Anarchists" they would have less trouble with lawsuits. But more trouble from the FBI. I think "Passive Anarchists Anonymous" might work. Except it might give the impression that they are trying to give-up passive anarchy. Ya know, it could be that anarchy IS disorderly and chaotic by its very nature. Whoa.
