People seem good while they are oppressed, but they only wish to become oppressors in their turn: life is nothing but a competition to be the criminal rather than the victim.

This is very true for the left/LGBT/blacks/etc.
Also, the "anti-censorship" right if it ever comes to that.
@Hyolobrika @anarchistquotes There is a reason for that. The anti-censorship right legitimately wants to be left alone, but that will never happen. The only way to be left alone is to wield power and carve out a space where others cannot invade

Hmm. It depends.
As for online, P2P technologies are improving constantly. With them, you can be free.
As for IRL, yes, you need to have some sort of authority. But that authority doesn't need to be wielded to censor or otherwise oppress those you disagree with.
