a valid argument in favor of anarchy.

It is a logical fallacy to believe that because citizens did not like one particular government that therefore all governments are bad.

In fact, I'm sure that the people who overthrew their governments realized that like every other society that overthrew their government they were not going to become an anarchist society... they knew that a different government would take its place.
