This is a general discussion of Anarchy.
This thread was influenced by the "EMO" thread,
as I got onto a topic of punks, which reminded
me slightly of anarchists.
I'm not sure if this is an apporpriate thread or not, but as
someone who is strongly against the government, media,
politicians, etc, I was wondering if anyone else had the
same beliefs.

Wikipedia - It comes in handy quite often!
A
political philosophy encompassing theories and attitudes which support the elimination of all forms of compulsory
government.
[10] The term
anarchism derives from the
Greek ἀναρχος,
anarchos, meaning "without rulers".
[11][12]
Some anarchists fundamentally oppose all forms of
coercion, while others have supported the use of some coercive measures, including violent revolution, on the path to
anarchy.
[25]
The founding fathers of United States were against government,
just as Anarchists are. No government was what the country was
built on.
Anarchy also can be considered to have no religion, but I'm
not quite sure of that, myself ^_^
Anarchists are known to protest and riot.
Basically, they are like hippies, only violent.
They carry the belief:
There's No Government Like No Government.
