What would an anarchist party be named, that would not scare people who think "anarchy" is synonymous with "total chaos?"

Yes. It is a stupid meme that currently has 527 upvotes. We're fucked.

At this point we need to create a mechanism that allows public pressure on a party.

Switching from FPTP voting (one-person, one vote) to something else will allow for other parties to have a chance but that will take time to brew.

We're not ready for sortition (selection of officials by lottery) but that would end the career of politicians. And having barbers and coal miners govern is better than what we got now, even if they'll need a lot of handholding, and an institution to swat away lobbyist pests.

The voters really did a number breaking open Pandora's jar in November. It's a fine mess they've brought upon us, and one we may not survive to clean up.
