So often, I ask myself when listening to ANews output and this would include Aragorn! too: what the fuck has any of this got to do specifically with being anarchist? There is so much material including many a TOTW which has nothing particularly to do with anarchism and is the material which can be heard on many a radio phone-in type show.

I am interested in how anarchists (so-called) incorporate anarchist ideas into their everyday life. So for example, I totally disagreed with Arargorn! working and claiming to be an anarchist, paying tax (which I assume he would be against?) etc etc. I gather he didn't pay a mortgage or rent as where he lived was owned outright? Also, he paid road tax in order to travel? He made no use of common law as far as I know?

It appears many of the ANews crowd are not interested in putting in any energy in challenging any of the oppression out there including employment, tax etc etc, instead preferring to live within such oppression and chatting about stuff which is also addressed in mainstream media through radio phone-ins, self-help books and magazine-type television programmes such as Oprah.

Nothing much radical comes out from you guys to be honest, maybe I'm wrong about this, but that's how it appears to me.

I would be appreciative and interested in any responses from the ANews crowd.

Thanks
