tbf old-school anarchists (i.e. not today's terminally online "anarchists") were a significant force in the united states but it's been a century since they were effectively ground into dust

yeah, like the nation's premier anarchist is an academic who tells everybody to vote Democrat every cycle, and all of them in popular media from podcasts to fiction are just soc dems. None of these people would be throwing bombs and the ones that would be you'll never hear about unless you're actually active in radical stuff, like Van Spronsen who enthusiastically demanded people buy and prepare to use guns and directly attack the machines of the state. Power and conflict, you either embrace them and stand a chance or don't and die. Whole Presidential campaigns used to campaign on how they would protect the nation from the anarchist menace threating it.

Like if you're lucky you'll run into a real-rear end hardcore anarchist once in your life and man they fuckin rule, but there's basically no barrier to entry or stigma in saying you're one so it's all kinds of liberals mostly


One mental image I always come back to is that Floyd protest against the police, I think it was in Portland, where somebody picked up a paving stone and immediately like 3 people grabbed him and handed him over the cops on the line. 1 hour later they were being brutalized by those same cops

thinking in terms of them as good or bad people doesn't seem politically useful to me in the first place, so i wouldn't be yelling or praising them or whatever you're imagining. but, yes, exploitation is bad, even when it's a small business owner reaping the rewards of exploitation on a small scale rather than jeff bezos

A distaste for the existence of and exercise of state power is understandable.

However, state power will always exist. A power vacuum will always (ALWAYS) be filled by the first person to assemble the largest group of people with guns/clubs/whatever.

If you think that state power is inherently evil, then come to terms with the fact that the world is inherently evil.

if you have employees you are inherently exploitative in a capitalist society, or you would not be able to be in business. just because you have one employee doesn't change that fact, and neither does actually performing real work yourself. it's not the fact that jeff bezos makes ridic money doing nothing that's the key factor that you're not getting, it's his relation with the labor he is exploiting, which is intrinsic to being a capitalist. you loving idiot

unless you literally see them performing mutual aid most anarchists are a waste

there’s a vocal contingent of tiktok anarchists who say that studying leftist theory is both racist (because it’s written by old white men) and discriminatory (because the poor and the marginalized are too dumb to read).

Anarchism as an ideological tendency i.e. skepticism of all state power and ultimate aim of abolishing all states is fine. IWW were the only decent labor union in the U.S. for several years. The problem is that when you move away from class-oriented anarchism towards anarchism as an aesthetic or as a yearning for ultimate "freedom" then really you're just a "radical" liberal, and that tendency often motivates people to be "anti-authoritarian" to the point where they're cheering on U.S. interventions in Libya and Syria

Wtf? Who did I yell at? My post about yelling at the corner store owner was a response to ppl who claim all bosses are bad no exceptions.

Its an exxaggeration trying to show the point that not all bosses are multi billionaire ceos and many are just regular folks barely making ends meet, often working insane hours themselves.
