The kind that thinks communism is the same as nazism and thinks communism is when the government does things.

I hate liberal brain worms.

They seriously do as much damage to the left as fascists by punching to the left and spreading capitalist anti-left propaganda. They overall weaken leftism and help fascism.

We need more left unity, folks. Fash ain’t gonna bash themselves.

nation states don’t recognize or respect non-state organizations of people (well. corporations, which are surely worse than liberal states) and if you don’t have a formal structure for them to recognize they will simply trample over you, would they not?

perhaps it’s my own ignorance but i’m aware of zero modern anarchist anti-imperial projects at the level of viet nam, dprk, laos, or cuba. You don’t have to like everything they do (or china or the ussr) but it should be really obvious that those states are less of an enemy of the people than and i would think they are therefore deserving of critical support in the face of western imperialism.

it’s a priority thing. i think anarchism has a shot in the US because of how fucked our culture is, and i would support any movement regardless of tendency that got anything going, but the most successful leftist project here in a century was the black panthers. Anarchist thought needs to explain how an anarchist society would survive the onslaught of capitalist imperialism right now and if you want more credit from fence-sitters there needs to be something durable and independent that’s bigger than food not bombs.

if there’s an anarchist project doing for its people what the cuban revolution did with literacy and hospitals and… please tell me about it i would love to move there.
