What you are saying makes sense in your identification of both components in "anarcho-tyranny". The reason I find it over the top is that when you state that we are living in "anarcho-tyranny", this is just blatantly exagerated.
- We don't live in anarchy, we globally live under the rule of law, even if unfortunate incidents such as these savages rioting in our cities or the far-left sacking neighborhoods do occur, and even if migrants to tend to get a pass when they commit crime.
- We also don't live in tyranny. The far-left and the far-right are theoretically treated the same way in the eyes of the law, and far-right groups still have freedom of speech. In practice we are witnessing some collusion between the media, international capital, mainstream political parties to give an edge to the far-left against the far-right no question. One would need to be blind not to fuckin notice it because it is everywhere. However, this is still a far cry from "tyranny".
For these reasons I disagree with your post.
I find the notion interesting, though, and it is one of many ways to describe these weird times we live in.
Yeah, obviously I don't mean total anarchy or total tyranny. The term is used more to put into context the dynamic between certain forces in Western societies where some laws and standards are upheld and some aren't. Often times there is a political motive behind the enforcement or lack thereof.
Consider the the situation in Calais. Every now and then a video will hit the net showing Calais migrants trying to break into lorries headed into the UK. They block the road in an attempt to force the trucks to stop and try and pry the doors open and stow away inside. There are literally hundreds of migrants at a time involved in these attempts and they operate with relative impunity. Sometimes they cause the entire road to back up for miles.
In one instance a Polish truck driver swerved his truck towards migrants in the road and although he didn't hit anybody or even leave the road he was quickly identified and fired. If British citizens question the migrant policy or criticize migrant actions, they potentially face hate speech laws and incitement.
In a normal situation, the migrants blocking the road would be identified and arrested for trespassing, obstruction, and property damage, and brought to justice. While law abiding truck drivers who are just trying to do their job and and transport their goods safely, would be protected by law enforcement and concerned citizens would have their issues addressed by government.
^^^That's anarchy.
