RE: The Anonymous Face of Violence

in #anarchy7 years ago (edited)

Collectivist thinking leads people to support something "bigger then themselves"; so those who participate in such violence have no trouble with masking their identities. After all they have mistakenly decided to seize their individual sovereignty for their cause.

Sort:  

And yet we are a social species and emergent properties of many of us together are real. Hopefully more voluntaryists and individualists will help find the balance we need to move forward and make sense of things.

Culture is one of those emergent properties and I believe the most fundamental distinction between groups of people.

It is, as is tribalism. You might enjoy the post about that I linked to.

Yeah it's good, thanks!
