Comment on How would an anarchist society work?

There are many types of theories, but they rarely are literally “no organized public sector”. Generally you can more think of it as your municipality being more or less completely sovereign and independent.

    I think that’s a slight pun.
    
    The “-archy” part comes from the greek for “to rule/command”. Monarchy = rule by a king, oligarchy = rule by few, etc.
    
    And the “an-” part means “not” or “without”. So anarchy technically means “not ruled” or “without rule” - but if things are still being ruled, it would still be an “archy”, not a “not archy”.

    One is shorthand for anthropology (archy) and the other involves vodka and fire. Wait, maybe I mixed those two up….
