    Well you are assuming that someone would step in with central authority. I will not get into a pointless fight of who was right, we agree that another system should be put in place. We might disagree that it quite natural to put a system of direct democracy in place when there is no central goverment, as it is often the case inside a friend group when people are making a decision about where they are going to eat or whatever. It is not my fault that I assumed what you are trying to say, it is quite reasonable and necessary in any conversation to assume what someone is trying to say if they haven’t been perfectly clear, which is ok since no one can be perfectly clear all the time. But you do have a bit of an attitude, in your orginal comment and here. You are being a bit arrogant and degrading other peoples opinions.

      A power vacuum is about systems and not leaders, but kill a leader, and the power vacuum happens.

      Find someone else to argue with if you don’t want to accept objective reality.

          Bro, you didn’t make any case against my arguments, and as far as being a contrarian is concerned, you remind me of why people project their own problems on to others.

          You still haven’t made a solid case of why a power vacuum isn’t going to happen if a government gets overthrown, without any system to replace it.

          You strike me as one of those anarchists who don’t think anarchy has any political system.

          And as far as being a contrarian is concerned, people in glass houses should not throw stones.

            How can I make an argument against if I agree with you? Did you even read my previous reply? This is exactly what I said, you just pick a battle where no one is disagreeing with you, just so you can feel smart to win an argument no one is arguing against you. What is your next comment going to be, asking again for an counter argument to the same point we are agreeing on?

              I guess it’s your attitude I’m reacting to. In any case, we can then conclude that we both agree power vacuums can happen if a leader or system gets overthrown with nothing to replace it.

              Good talk.
