Those are interesting quotes. However we must at the same time be vigilant of what the media portrays as right and good and true. Here is an enlightening expose by the Canadian philosopher Stefan Molyneux of the skeletons in the closet of the Nelson Mandela that few report.
He was a socialist politician in the rape, murder, and sexual assault capital of the world. There exists no form of institutionalized government, which does not systematically steal, exploit, and ultimately murder its own citizens. Arguably Socialism and Communism takes first prize in this respect when Nazi Germany, Communist China, Soviet Russia, Khmer Rouge of Cambodia, Socialist Yugoslavia etc. are taken into account. Our form “elected government” is no different. We just have different excuses.
We must stop looking to politicians and rulers to save us from the State. They are only the branch of the problem. The people must reclaim their Sovereign inalienable rights away from charismatic despots that would trample on those freedoms to advance their own Statist agendas. The solution to wealth inequality and legal plunder is not more forceful wealth redistribution and legal plunder. The system must be torn asunder from the inside out.
A practitioner of Eastern Healing arts with degrees in Acupuncture and Chinese medicinal herbs, I have always questioned the status quo, a path which led me to peaceful anarchism. Through my journey, I have worn many hats, that of a classical pianist, avid chess player, philosopher, comedian, and now father of two little anarchists. My wife brands me as a Cultural Critic, but I am simply following my thirst for knowledge and passion for writing.
