Other People Are Not Your Property, But This Button Can Be

ANARCHY button The slogan “Anarchy is the radical notion that other people are not your property” – which as far as I can tell I coined (see here, here, here for the core idea; the rest was borrowed from the more famous slogan “Feminism is the radical notion that women are people”) – is now available from the Molinari Institute not only as a trendy t-shirt but also as a bodacious button.

Although you can’t tell from the picture, the red letters are much brighter and more distinct on the button than on the t-shirt.

Or be doubly cool and wear the anarchy button on your anarchy t-shirt.

For any minarchists who are feeling left out, I see that there’s an outfit on CafePress that sells minarchist paraphernalia, complete with a new minarchy symbol. See? minarchists can look stylish too.

But if you wear one of our anarchist buttons on one of their minarchist t-shirts, you will promptly explode. A is A, man. A isn’t M.

    How should one interpret “Radical Minarchist”? Shouldn’t RM lead you to A?

    Yea, what Joe said. I would think “radical minarchism” would mean anarchism, and “radical anarchism” would mean, oh, I don’t know, nihilism?

    Maybe Chris Sciabarra is a radical minarchist.

    Come to think of it, Jacob Hornberger fits the radical minarchist label.

    The minarchist slogans really lack the pith of your anarchist one.

    The other day, after years of trying intermittently, I was finally able to explain my political ideas (viz anarcho-capitalism) to my father in a way that made them seem more-or-less sane to him. His reaction was, “Hmmm, well that doesn’t sound like anarchism at all.”

    I’m still not sure “anarchy” is the right word for us to be using.
