The trouble is you anarchists construct this incredibly pure model of the perfect society and then judge everything against it. No revolution in history can possibly measure up. And you create this incedibly perfect model of the enlightened individual engaging in enlightened political activity, and condemn anyone who doesn't measure up because they commit some sin like voting or believing in God or being nationalistic. Nothing you do is wrong. Your ideals are good. But others prefer the more pragmatic approach explained by Cam. And I would rather take one of the imperfect revolutions that has actually occurred in this world than a heaven that exists only in the heads of a few anarchist intellectuals.
