	Looks to me that the political philosophy that Rayzer
	nicely summed up in one sentence is nothing but crass
	totalitarianism.

	'True' 'anarchists' are supposed to be anti-authoritarian, yet
	what we have here is an apology for the unbounded 'authority'
	of the 'herd' (in practice of course, the authority of the
	'herd's' 'representatives')
