Curiously, Balash blames "public education" for the allure of McAnarchy for "young gullibles." Presumably he enjoyed the privilege of a private education, confirming the growing suspicion that anarcho-leftists are missionaries from the higher reaches of the middle class who condescend to instill workerism into the workers.
Balash, however, may not be aware of this, just as he must not be aware that Stirner is not our contemporary, he passed away in 1856.
Balash expects his readers to take it for granted that McAnarchists are "the most spoiled brats on god’s green earth." As this purports to be a statement of fact, some evidence of the economic status of McAnarchists is called for, but none is provided.
