History

Beliefs
PhilAn believes that the state lacks moral legitimacy but it shouldn't be brought down through violence. Instead of violence, they believe that state should be brought down through gradual change and freeing individuals from oppressive laws and social constraints of the state and allow all individuals to become self-determining and value-creating. Some may accept the existence of a minimal state as an unfortunate and temporary necessary evil, but they argue that citizens do not have a moral obligation to obey the state when its laws conflict with individual autonomy.
Personality and Behavior
PhilAn is very peaceful. He talks to statists in a calm way unlike the other anarchists which are a lot more violent. He is also very wise and can be seen giving life advice to other ideologies. He is very individualistic and often keeps to himself not really interacting with other ideologies much.
