just a crazy thought.

waht if an anarchist group attained political power, would they by principle have to dissolve their own government?

No. Very simple. No, no, no, and no.

There are several antichrist governments in power, not in the public eye of course, but to experienced observer, they are everywhere. You just have to look for their symbols and insignia and you will find them.

ah, he said Anarchist not anti-christ.

well first you have to have a bunch of anarchists, do something against their nature and form a group. THEN you have to have that group go against its nature and participate in civil affairs. THEN you have to have that group that shouldnt be a group that shouldnt be in civil affairs go against its nature again and try for domination.

THEN you have to assume it will go against its current trend and start acting like anarchists again. which means it wouldnt be dissolved, it would collapse from lack of participation.

if a bunch of anarchists suddenly got control, you might see a half hearted surface level dissolution followed by a collapse and liquidation by a totalitarian group(s).

If an anarchist group took the time to do so, why would they disolve their own government?

Well thats what i've always thought. I always lived by the idea that after an anarchist government gets into power, other anarchist groups will bring them down.

There are organisations in place in every country that will eliminate Anarcist groups before power is gained.

First, let's see what we're dealing with here.

Anarchist
1 : one who rebels against any authority, established order, or ruling power
2 : one who believes in, advocates, or promotes anarchism or anarchy; especially : one who uses violent means to overthrow the established order

Anarchism
1 : a political theory holding all forms of governmental authority to be unnecessary and undesirable and advocating a society based on voluntary cooperation and free association of individuals and groups
2 : the advocacy or practice of anarchistic principles

This leads to the following conclusions:
Anarchists believe in volundary cooperation and free association of individuals and groups.
This means that anarchists have no problem forming groups, even large ones, as long as it is based on voluntary cooperation.

Anarchists rebel against any authority, established order, or ruling power.
This means that an anarchist government would have to be either not anarchist or not a government.

In summary:
Yes, an anarchist group that attained political power would dissolve the government. The group itself would not likely dissolve, but it would not govern. Alternatively, the group would govern, but would stop being anarchist.
