lol, don't forget "And anybody who claims to be an anarchist should be avoided at all cost, or brutally assaulted, as they enjoy explosions."
I've been trying to find the movie,
The Anarchist Cookbook, because I hear it's absolutely absurd so I think it'd be fun! I haven't read the book either but I've read a bunch about it.

Well, anarchy is more than just lack of government YANNO? The reason I picked anarchy, instead of some other ideology, was because it's the only one that allows actual freedom.
For example:
Situation: You have a government or authority (leaders of fun little groups that you do for fun and things like that don't count as authority, that'd be crazy) running your country.
Faults in that, which make it more dystopian than utopian by default: Government/authority automatically puts someone 'above' you. They run YOUR life. It assumes you aren't able to handle yourself, which can also lead to just as much unnecessary conflict as it does necessary, meaning it could do just as much harm as good.
Countries lead to nationalism, which leads to... well you know, if unchecked.
I mean, capitalism, private property/ownership... tons of other problems. VOTE ANARCHY 4 PREZ!
(and yes, anarchy may never happen, lol)
And the xfactor, there are some things I learned in school that I've forgotten, no doubt. I wasn't dismissing the school system entirely. I mean, I learned how to do math and all that in school. What I'm saying is, the education system needs to be overhauled completely because it just doesn't benefit people like it should. In fact, some aspects of it are downright destructive.
For example:
Hypothetically speaking, why do you take courses you don't need? Why do you spend tons of time doing homework as it stunts other growth that is necessary for people? Why, so often, do things come down to mere memorization? Why didn't I learn about anarchy in school? Why were things twisted around, or downright lies? AND MORE, but you probably get the point.
Mind you, I understand that University is better, and those points were mainly aimed at high school. But there are problems with Uni as well, and a big one is cost. That's a massive issue.
