WIST Quotations Has Moved!A quotation from Wendell Berry
However, I do belong in the fullest sense of the word to a large group that is having a vast and ever-increasing effect on the world. It is known as the human race. I am aware that as a member of that group I am in the worst possible company: communists, fascists and totalitarians of all sorts, militarists and tyrants, exploiters, vandals, gluttons, ignoramuses, murderers, thieves, and liars, men for whose birth the creation is worse off and for whose lives other men will still be suffering a hundred years from now. The price of admission to this group is great, and until death not fully known. The cost of getting out is extreme. I find, therefore, no reasonable alternative to membership. But since I am a member on such exacting terms, I will not allow my involvement with this group to remain accidental, but will give my whole allegiance to it and work for its betterment.Wendell Berry (b. 1934) American farmer, educator, poet, conservationist
Speech (1968-02-10), “A Statement Against the War in Vietnam,” Kentucky Conference on the War and the Draft, University of Kentucky

Can Anarchy Protect Us From Bad People?
A quotation from Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.
Treat bad men exactly as if they were insane. They are in-sane, out of health, morally. Reason, which is food to sound minds, is not tolerated, still less assimilated, unless administered with the greatest caution; perhaps, not at all. Avoid collision with them, so far as you honorably can; keep your temper, if you can, — for one angry man is as good as another; restrain them from violence, promptly, completely, and with the least possible injury, just as in the case of maniacs, — and when you have got rid of them, or got them tied hand and foot so that they can do no mischief, sit down and contemplate them charitably, remembering that nine tenths of their perversity comes from outside influences, drunken ancestors, abuse in childhood, bad company, from which you have happily been preserved, and for some of which you, as a member of society, may be fractionally responsible.Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809-1894) American poet, essayist, scholar
Article (1860-08), “The Professor’s Story [Elsie Venner],” ch. 16 [The Professor], Atlantic Monthly, Vol. 6, No. 34

fanf42This article "Bad People" by @rechelon is very good.
It explains the facts that some people, and not a few, like to live in command and control pyramidal structures. That not everyone is altruistic. That there is bad people,
"those for whom other people are not an extension of their own existence as sites of agency, but objects to be crushed or used."
So realization #1, again and again proved in history, old and current:
"A core anarchist realization is that we cannot guard against bad people by creating institutions of power because the same bad people will inevitably seize and wield those institutions. "
I won't quote it all, but then it goes to police and "simplistic order" structures, how they attract bad people and defend pyramidal hierarchies - often with bad people on top.
It describes the fact that these bad people see decentralisation of communications and large scale coordination and altruistic weapons like boycots (where you accept to lose personnaly for a better future for the community) as existential risks to them.
Also how the bad people are themselves very bad at organic coordination (too much selfishness) and rely on pyramidal power structures.
And thus, they always drift towards the state and its institutions.
And that's just half the article. It is really very good.
OK, so I think I get all that. I even get that in an hypothetical world without any pyramidal power structures, you can manage to avoid their awaking with strong and definitive retaliation when some start to appear - even if I don't get how it's done in the whole world, or if only on your communities, how you manage imperialism from others.
But I still don't get how we can go from where we are to that world, even with bottom-up thingy.
And I don't understand either how we can know most people don't want to be part of pyramidal structures.

These three assholes off-trail, trampling sensitive plant life and potentially disturbing birds and seals.
THE SIGNS APPLY TO EVERYONE
Iirc I shouted at them, but I haven't always felt able to do so. I hate this entitlement, disregard for wild spaces you're privileged to be in, ignorance, harm. Grow tf up. People are the worst.
