I'm well past the phase of thinking anarchy would be great, and I still want to see the world go to shit. Why not? What have we got to lose? Lives? Nobody cares about lives. Not really. Just the closest ones they can find.

Perhaps its the same part of me that likes to watch fire. Its chaos. It destroys quite a bit of what it touches, but for a very brief moment you get to see everything very, very clearly.

Then you get murdered by a man in a clown mask with two strapons glued to his knees as he chops you in to tiny pieces with your woodcutting axe. All of which is fine, so long as every copy of "The Host" gets burnt for fuel, along with all of the Star Wars prequels. Every single copy.
