Do you realize that at one time, the entire state of Indiana was controlled by the Klan? And both the Senate and Congress were filled with Klansman?

Words change in time. They adapt, grow, change with location and dialect, and redefine themselves either in adaption of changing times of evolving out of necessity. As mentioned with anarch, if we went soley by the original meaning it would mean somebody that has slain a king. It went on to become a blanket term for social activism and those who resist an unfair ruling body. It doesn't have to mean an act of murder on some guy with a crown.

As for social order, some are more favourable than others. When Washington and our Founding Fathers decided enough was enough and they engaged the revolution, they acted as anarchists. In the classical sense even, as they were killing actual agents of the Crown. They toppled one social order, settled down, and attempted to create a new experiment in a newly formed conceptual democracy. While there had been democracies before, this was quite a bold experiment... Did it work? Umm... No. And it's time for another revolution most likely to throw off the current powers that be and try again.

It's still the greatest failure ever... And it's amazing that it still works as well as it does inspite of those failures.

Doc, if some politicians in an extant power structure apply the label "Anarchist" to citizens advocating change, the politicians are deliberately overstating their case, using hyperbole and Humpty Dumpty semantics to color public discussion. That does not make a reformer or a protester an Anarchist, it makes the politician a liar, or a spin doctor. A reformer wants to alter, not discard, the current system. The Anarchist wants to do away with a system, in favor of nothing, not practical, or "something completely different." What they usually get is "meet the new boss, same as the old boss." Who?
