Very interesting documentary, it explores the difference between anarchy in the public eye and what anarchists really believe (according to them at least).  It also explores the difference between Libertarians and Anarchists.

I am still watching the doc but I have to say that Anarchy is just as misunderstood as freedom and liberty, if not more so.

I think it is worth noting that the original Republic that the US was founded on was a small step from Anarchism... within reaching distance. Today's US is only a Republic in name.

Just finished watching the Doc and it was pretty good. It is also pretty outdated but it is good to see the old footage of Jello and Reagan and all that. It didn't seem so long ago when it happened. If only I knew then that it was the beginning of the end (Reaganomics and HW) I would have started preparing so much earlier.

The doc doesn't really explain anarchy as well as it could. In stead it gives several takes on it from different peoples perspectives.
