Here is an interesting supposition: A philosophy that is based on
demonstrably false postulates is invalid. 

What you described in your post is a methodology to create anarchy,
originated by a group of philosophers whose supposition is that the
natural state of humanity is Communism (based on suppositions about
primitive societies which never existed), and that evil and greed were
created by Western Civilization and Christianity. If both are destroyed,
and a state of anarchy is created, then a Communist Paradise will arise
from the ashes. 

Regardless of how ridiculous this summary may sound, the primary
architects of this philosophy were extremely influential: Wilhelm Reich,
Erich Fromm, and Herbert Marcuse.
