Anarchism

Are you an Anarchist? The answer might surprise you!

Rules:

  1. Be respectful
  2. Don't be a nazi
  3. Argue about the point and not the person
  4. This is not the place to debate the merits of anarchism itself. While discussion is encouraged, getting in your “epic dunks on the anarkiddies” is not. As a result of the instance’s poor moderation policies and hostility toward anarchists by default, lemmygrad users are encouraged not to post here, though not explicitly disallowed if they aren’t just looking to start a fight.

Compulsory education would violate anarchist principles.

I agree. School is supposed to cover the basics so that you can learn anything on your own later, plus enough about health and history that you can function in the world.

The serious issue with abolishing compulsory education (at least pre-college), is that a gross majority of parents can't or won't teach their kids these things. It's either a time, energy or knowledge limitation.
