Just when I saw their symbol I thought they might be having their strings pulled by the same people.....

lol its not true rebellion. Its the other side of the coin with the same guy flipping it. Check out punk rock etc etc.
True rebellion is to see both sides for what they are.

Uh, anarchy does not have a "logo". It's not a belief in something, it's the absence of said belief. It's like saying "atheism" has a logo. The concept of anarchy has been warped, infiltrated and changed by the elite. True anarchy is not sewing patches into your pants and burning flags.
Anarchy is simply a society that functions without a state or other authoritarian constructs. It is not some Mad Max, nihilist world of no rules, but rather the idea that, were oppressive, pathological, unnatural and inhuman methods of control, government and religion removed, leaving human beings to their own free human will, the world would function on naturalistic terms, such as mutual aid.
In short, the presence of the elite pyramid structure is what fascilitates the perceived necessity of the elite pyramid structure, not some fundamental flaw in human beings that requires them to be ruled over.

Writing habit I've had for years, don't read anything into it.

It's true that the real meaning of anarchy has been lost. If you ask any member of the Joe public, they'll tell you it means people smashing things up, and not giving a fuck about anything. The best way i think to sum up what true anarchy means is from a line a radio talk show host near me used to always say. And that was:
"Freedom With Responsibility"
And that is what "Real" anarchy is!

No worries mate. Wasn't meaning to be cheeky. I'm a virtual newbie (27 yrs of lies to unlearn :D) to all this 'truth' and practically not done any reading on the subject so your scribblings are very much welcomed here.

Well said, adramechel! I've been trying to phrase that concisely for quite a while...
