1530s, “absence of government,” from French anarchie or directly from Medieval Latin anarchia, from Greek anarkhia “lack of a leader, the state of people without a government” (in Athens, used of the Year of Thirty Tyrants, 404 B.C., when there was no archon), abstract noun from anarkhos “rulerless,” from an- “without” (see an- (1)) + arkhos “leader” (see archon).

Bro still can’t grasp that words can have more than one meaning

So you admit that the definitions I’ve used are right, thanks.

Language evolves, yes. Words can have several colloquial meanings. But prescriptive meanings don’t change.

Prescriptively, the type of “anarchism” you support is minarchic synarchism, and not anarchism, per se
