it think it comes from the old brit-punks of the early seventies.

anarchy to these people means destroying other people's property.  they
think they're "sticking it to the man" but in truth all they're doing is
making a bad name for themselves and hurting people who could otherwise be
swayed to their side.

and i'm well aware of the faux pas i'm making here.  sorry, all...

        Now, I am still kind of new to the area, but isn't the anarchism
that these
politically-aware-yet-socially-inept people subscribe to some sort of
socio-political philosophy as opposed to the raw "anarchy" in Webster's?
Isn't it almost a party or something?  If so, then what do they hope to
accomplish by destroying property?  Am I still not getting it?  I am
genuinely curious.
