The future trajectory of the Revolution remained uncertain, but Upton found the philosophical anarchists' ideas particularly persuasive. They envisioned a society breaking apart into autonomous communities composed of like-minded individuals who would not rely on traditional structures such as police, military, or government for governance.
With the old deity no longer central to authority, Upton believed humanity would finally seize control of their own destiny. This perspective reflected a profound shift towards individual empowerment and self-governance, suggesting a society where freedom and cooperation could thrive without hierarchical constraints.
