Actually fascism is the only ideology I know of that openly promotes state worship and completely centralized power.

Good to see there's at least one other anarchist on these forums.
Most people here seem to be on the libertarian side of things, which is comforting. An interesting little redpill a libertarian put out was this realization: The government does not exist, just as a forest does not exist. A forest is made out of individual trees, and could not exist without the individual trees. It's just a way of referring to a collective. The "government" is a way of referring to a group of people that have different rights from everyone else. The right to steal money away from working people, use counterfeited money, kidnap, imprison, kill, start wars and initiate the use of force against unarmed citizens for any given reason.
Once people realize the government is just people who tell you to obey them, they'll see the evil that it is and it'll lose it's power to control people.
