Go on, laugh daily.
...The main point I had was that all the great revolutionary socialist parties (bolsheviks, kuomintang, jacobins, actionists, fascists, falangists, syndicalists, yippies, nazis, peronistas, etc.) all had a great fetish for anarchy in the context of tearing down the existing regimes they opposed. This is a matter of historcial record. Also, if you start with Sorel and work back to Rousseau you get an almost cult like devotion to the rejection of reason and deliberative (parlimetary) government & law.
Now does this mean that all socialists want this or desire the bloodbaths that followed the great socialist revolutions (e.g. Red October & WW2)? No, of course not, but it cannot be denied that socialists of one type or another killed approximately 150 million people in the 20th century.
