Pull the other one.

Are you fucking serious? Are you saying that anarchists have the foresight to see
every possibility on the horizon? I'm not saying that they couldn't put out a few fires, but if a situation ever arose where a leader was needed IMMEDIATELY, where immediate action was the order of the day, how could a society based on unanimous decision making react in time, especially if that society was larger than a small hamlet?
After all, isn't that the idea behind an anarchist society? Universal cooperation based on unanimous agreement? Voting would be out, because that would really make things into more of a democracy, or a democratic republic, than an anarchist society, wouldn't it?
