How do you plan on enforcing human rights without a government? Mob rule?

You both seem to have a poor understanding of anarchy.  The one liner that I use to explain the basic premise to people that are stuck in the regular box of political thought is this - Anarchy doesn't mean no rules.  It means no rulers.  That's about as far as I'm interested in taking this discussion on VGC.  I come to this site to discuss gaming.  I should have kept my mouth shut in this thread.  But, I just couldn't help but point out the ridiculous yearning by gamers for crony capitalists to control the internet.  In the same sentence people talk about how big companies are going to ruin the internet, while calling on big companies to have their way with the internet.  People shit-talk the Trump administration (rightly so), then immediately say that they want the Trump administration to have more control over the internet.  It is mind boggling. 

This answers nothing. Who enforces human rights? Maybe it's because my understanding of the details of anarchy are poor, but I have a hard time believing anyone could enforce human rights without acting as a de-facto government.
