I Was a Teenage Anarchist by Against Me!

These lyrics are meant to explain how much like other ideologies, anarchism is taken in the wrong way and is being used by teenagers to justify rebellion or far-right wingers to justify violence in the left. Anarchy has a much deeper meaning that just what people put to it and thus has many misconceptions. One of the principles of anarchism is to put meaning to things that society has desensitized, but many people are doing just that to anarchy.

There is no justice in racist system! There never has been and there never will be justice, in a system that has been set up to marginalize others. We will never be free until we either completely reform the system or abolish it.

Just doing anything small can help push forward the environmental movement, but now, environmentalism is often considered a form of eco-terrorism by many officials due to how it often requires anti-capitalist initiatives to take place.

Many politicians pledge to be dedicated to the environment, and to put environmental issues first, but in reality many people often prioritize their own needs before those of the earth's. If we want a place to live in the future, action needs to be taken now!

"With sabotage, instead, they are no longer at the mercy of their bosses — they are no more a heap of nerveless flesh to be trampled upon with impunity. They have found a means whereby they can affirm their own virility and prove to their oppressors that even the toilers are men." - Sabotage (1913) by Émile Pouget

Sabotage is a form of protest in the anarchist community in which the main end goal is to weaken an organization (government, business, etc.) through disruption. In eco-anarchism, this can be see in the novel, The Monkey Wrench Gang (1975) by Edward Abbey in which a wrench is being thrown into a piece of moving mechanical machinery in order to stop production. In labor unions, sabotage is often seen as self-defense against abusive employers.

Resistance is fertile! Resistance has a purpose and is beneficial to social movements. Along with this, planting food and growing our own food today is a good way to promote an ecologically productive world and prevent supporting the 'big food' industry.

So you may be thinking, anarchy, isn't that a bit drastic? Yes, and I may go back on this perspective in some number of years, but right now I think it's what the world needs. What I do believe is that the core principles of anarchy are often misconstrued by both the media and what we're taught in school.

Oxford Dictionary has two definitions for anarchy:

a state of disorder due to the absence or unrecognition of authority or other controlling systems.

the organization of society on the basis of voluntary cooperation, without political institutions or hierarchal government; anarchism

This being said, the political belief of anarchy (2) is often mixed up with the subject of state of disorder (1). What most attracts me to this faction is the concept that no one is free until we destroy hierarchal structures which serve to put people down based on class and other demographic factors such as race or gender. Along with this, the sub-faction of eco-anarchism believes that climate change and other environmental problems are the largest issues impacting our world today, and believes that radical action is needed to make any change. Seeing as how slowly it has taken to enact positive environmental legislation in society today through democratic principles, the next best step are those highlighted in the tenants of radical environmentalism.

In the end, no one is free until we are all free. "No gods, no masters."
