Greek anarchists must be stoked falling oil prices have made Molotov cocktails affordable again as they burn the country to the ground. While much of the reporting places young anarchists at the center of the trouble there’s also significant support from working people over the country’s financial straits. The whole lot of them love to protest. For the record, real anarchy is not about nihilism or the absence of rules, but rather an anti-authoritarianism based on mutual aid. A bit of a hippie pipe bomb dream to be sure but with cheap gas available, the Greek kids are having their say. Unfortunately, all this pot-stirring will have little coherent message in the end as issues blur into spats of hair pulling, baton smashing and smoldering shops. Democracy was born in Greece and it could very well die there as well.
