Scott wasn't an anarchist either - hence "Two Cheers" instead of three. He worked for the CIA in the 1960s, self-identified as a "crude Marxist" at best, didn't believe it was possible or necessary to eliminate the state - which he described as a rare but potential force for good - and was a frequent donor to the Democrats.
