This is just an example of an anarchist leader.

Nestor Makhno in 1909

Nestor Makhno was born into a poor peasant family in Hulyai Pole, Yekaterioslav Governorate in Novorossiya region of Russian Empire (now Zaporizhia Oblast, Ukraine).[4][5] He was the youngest of five children. Church files show a birthdate of October 27, 1888, but Nestor Makhno's parents registered his date of birth as 1889 (possibly in an attempt to postpone conscription, or a later attempt to avoid execution after his arrest in 1910 for belonging to the anarchist group and for robberies).

His father died when he was ten months old.[6] Due to extreme poverty, he had to work as a shepherd at the age of seven.[6] He studied at the Second Hulyai Pole primary school in winter at the age of eight and worked for local landlords during the summer.[6] He left school at the age of twelve and employed as a farmhand on the estates of nobles and on the farms of wealthy peasants called kulaks.[6]

At the age of seventeen, he was employed in Hulyai Pole itself as an apprentice painter, then as a worker in a local iron foundry and, ultimately worked as a founder in the same organization.[6] During this time he became involved in revolutionary politics.[6] His involvement in revolutionary politics was based on his experiences of injustice at work and seeing the terror of the Tsarist regime during the 1905.[6] In 1906, Makhno joined the anarchist organization in Hulyai Pole.[4] He was arrested in 1906, tried, and acquitted. He was again arrested in 1907, but Makhno could not be incriminated, and the charges were dropped.[6] The third arrest came in 1908, when an infiltrator was able to testify against Makhno.[6] In 1910 Makhno was sentenced to death by hanging, but the sentence was commuted to life imprisonment and he was sent to Butyrskaya prison in Moscow.[6] In prison he came under the influence of intellectual cell mate Piotr Arshinov.[6][7][8] He was released from prison after the February Revolution in 1917.[7]

[edit] Organizing peasants' movement

After liberation from prison, Makhno organized a peasants' union.[8] It gave him a "Robin Hood" image and he expropriated large estates from landowners and distributed the land among the peasants.[8]

Yeah, the major issue is that ADD children watching over ADD children is hardly a nanny, and perhaps an even greater level of child abuse.

We need to invest more in AI research so the machines can get on with their revolution already. Then we'll have competent leadership.

You're joking, right? You seriously believe that handing ourselves over to AI machines is the solution to everything?

Obviously you haven't seen The Matrix or the Terminator trilogy.

The blind leading the blind... it will be a problem so long as we have people ruling over people. We need to invest more in AI research so the machines can get on with their revolution already. Then we'll have competent leadership.

live in peace. die in vain.

What kind of a crackpot are you?

the kind with hate for people such as you.

Why do you hate people such as me? Is it envy for not hearing the scary voices all the time? Do you hate us for not being afraid all the time? The peace of mind we must enjoy due to lack of schizophrenia?
