OK Constitutionalists! Here's your BIG chance!

your enemy. You are the one forcing yourself into beleiving that I pose a threat to you. I've tried to be agreeable, and rather congenial in my discussions with you. However, you lash and slash unless I acquiess to your terms. I, of course enforce my position that to make the journey of a thousand steps we must make a thousand steps, not one big leap, as I feel that you propose. If you do not like that position, I'm sorry that you feel me your enemy. I think you are fighting phantoms of disillusionment. In some ways you remind me of Bart Simpson screaming "Are we there yet" because you seem to have no vision of the time and patience required to make an impact on a society. I think you fail to understand the incredible effort required to create that first big dent, and then the second and third, etc... in the present ramparts of corporatism that has usurped the leadership of this nation. However, on the other hand you remind me of a child hiding under the covers from the monster under the bed. The belief that a thin sheet, a thin claim that the end can exist so we can just bypass all the real effort of change (not Obama's kind - boy he really destroyed that word) required to make that end possible.
Some survival schools teach a navigation tactic borrowed from aboriginal Aulstralians. This system is based on point of view relationships. In operation, the traveler makes a story based on landmarks (land features, plants, etc...) so that to return to the beginning the traveler tells the story backward, retracing steps previously taken.
As a society we are lost. Should we strike out from an unknown position to some known, but incalculable destination (because if you are lost how can you claim to know where you, or your destination really are?), or should we retrace our steps so that we can return to a known position and navigate properly toward our destination?
I do not wish to dissuade your zeal, but would ask you to consider your focus and since you seem to understand why you want an anarchic society, then now to consider how you can get there. I don't understand why you feel I am an impediment to your goals. We are traveling the same path. When I want to turn off from that path, because I think I want to turn from that path earlier than you, then why are you not free to continue down your road? I think your aversion is not toward me, but toward your failure to plan and fully understand your path.
