Some 12 years ago I too identified with the anarchist socio-political
theory. But I came to believe that the vast majority of humans are too
worthless to profit by it. Hell, they cannot even conceive of it. So I
switched to identifying as a rabid individualist -- keep an eye on me if
you like to watch people hurt themselves. :-) 

If being right means being your own worst enemy ... but then surely
there are an infinite number of ways of being one's own worst enemy: so
many ways to f__k one's self -- so little time. Having a talent is not
always a good thing, trust me.
