Hyperbole upon hyperbole. The literal parsing of the Greek term is too literal, especially considering it's root ἄναρχος. True, an industialised anarchic society is seemingly impossible, despite our roots being without governments. The nomad upright balding ape was short on hierarchies. We were raised to be self governing through socialisation; stone age civics classes. The council, often enough solely female in membrtship, was rarely needed. Discord serves no purpose when you were still links below top of the food chain.
Then we tapped into the lazy gene and settled in that fertile crescent. Beer and roast rodents for everyone! Including the inevitable warrior king for whom, one hamlet is never enough. The layers to justify the layers have abounded since, barely outstripping blood drenched fields. Now we add in a layer of depleted uranium to the lands in contest. Tell me again how the boogey man is this thing so oft cited as anarchy?
