Anyone watch One Piece?
As an anarchist, i began seeing ALOT of anarchist elements and themes in both the main plots, and just tidbits of side plots. The shadow intelligence agency that just tried to frame luffy and the strawhats for the murder of aship building colony's mayor, who possesses blue prints for an ancient secret weapon/battleshit has me convinced the creator is an anarchist. They were sent by the antagonist world government.
When it turns out the masked assassins are actually embedded shipwrights who were working there for 5 years to get closer to the mayor, one of the shipwrights, the mayors right hand man of sorts, ends up with some dialouge in episode 244 - gonna give an excerpt here because i appreciated the message:
"We will achieve our goal by anymeans necessary, so if you're thinking or resisting for the sake of being difficult, I suggest you be considerate, for your own good as well as ours....I assume You're already familiar with 'Cipher Pol', its the government's supreme intelligence agency with 8 branches. The worldwide bases are known as CP1 through CP8. Together they serve as the governments eyes and ears at every corner of the globe."
"Of course I know, but how do everyone of you fit into that picture"
"Good question, as the 9th "Cipher Pol" unit, we officially do not exist, and by virtue of that, we possess a certain privilege that others lack, one the necesitates a bit of secrecy."
"Privilege?"
"That's right, consider it a blade we wield in the name of justice, if a citizen is uncoperative towards the government, we have permission to execute them."
"You fools! You cant use justice as an excuse for murder!"
"Recently, the government has been forced to change its way of thinking. For example, rather than fearing Pluton's revival, they have decided to awaken it themselves - to use the ancient weapon as a force of justice that can bring an end to this great pirate era. And now you want to stand in the way, its as if you have no sympathy for all the people who have been victimized by pirates. You should reconsider where your loyalties lie."
"Don't kid yourself, if the weapon is restored, the world is going to fight over its power. It will only breed more destruction."
"Are you saying that you don't trust the government Mr.Iceburg? That would be a shame."
"Its human nature i dont trust. I just know the nature of humans."
