A fighter for reason and self-determination

Posted by Gabobjectivist on November 27th, 2007

This collection contains the best stories featuring the character of Anarky. Anarky is really a 16-year old boy (12 in the first episodes of the book) who dedicates his whole life toward fighting the parasites which are dooming our civilization. No wonder he is seen as a villain by most.

The book starts with a two-part story in which Anarky debuts as a merciless criminal hunter. Nevertheless, over the course of the following stories, Anarky becomes more than that. He doesn't just fight average thugs--- his target is the core of evil: the philosophers, politicians and priests who dominate others by destroying the values of rationality and self-determination.

In the words of the main character:

"In harsh economic terms, there are only two kinds of people in the world... those who produce services, goods and values... and those who don´t. And before you say what about the old, the young and the sick... we look after them, right?... Intentional non-producers are parasites. To hide their parasitism, they employ the techniques of deception, coercion and naked force. Parasites can never create. They can only destroy. Today, for the first time in history, the parasites outnumber the producers who support them. They're entering a final feeding frenzy, which will result in the ultimate evil: a totalitarian state."

"Aristotle believed that man is basically good, decent and noble. If left to his own devices, he'll seek individual happiness within an orderly society. For Aristotle, human life and sovereign consciousness were the universe's greatest values. But Plato believed man is a wild and savage beast, incapable of self-discipline. To manage him for his own best ends, man needs rulers: kings, governments, priests, presidents. For Plato, human life is worthless, to be endlessly sacrificed to "higher" causes and ideals. Which one do you think the world followed?"

All in all, this collection provides an entertaining, intellectually challenging, and different read. Worth checking out.
