Someone didn't read V for Vendetta.

Well, eventually someone will be able to generate enough followers to start taking control of various regions. So if anarchy ever did happen, it would only last long enough till someone charismatic or powerful enough came along to take control of the situation.

That's why I say a viking fleet to pillage and burn. That way we would have fun before they got organized and then we just fade away with all or ill gotten gains.

Precisely. See: Command and Conquer's Kane.

I feel all warm, fuzzy and tolerant inside.

That's a mighty big assumption there. Granted, I can see the logical train of thought behind it. But it is based on todays logic, or more accurately on present society's logic. There's no real way of knowing without trying. And even then there's nothing to say everything happens the same way twice.

Actually, its more based on the long line of history humanity has had. It's filled with people striving for power and doing what it takes to get that power. Anarchy wouldn't change that, it might put it on hold for a little while but it wouldn't change it at all. Eventually someone will come along who will take what he wants a build an empire out of it.

This is awesome.

Every time I read something and think it couldn't get any better it does!

Also, it's not really trolling with fifth unless there is a Gif illustrating a passive agressive insult against your nature and intellect as a being.
See?! See?!

It's belligerent, yet classy!

What? That gif was me 100% agreeing with Ryander.

I was totally like "oh man he just said that about how the thread can't get any better but keeps getting better and now the post after that is gonna be this awesome gif that makes the thread even better, ol' Ryan's going to love it."

It was the least belligerent thing I've posted all day!

This is going to sound cliché as all hell, but that made more sense in my head before i posted...

...seriously.
