Anyway there was a guy who used to post here who called himself an anarchist and was also pro-Hillary, so that's something we're going to have to keep in mind moving forward

Anarchists who are into aesthetics are crypto-liberals but also IWW was the closest thing the U.S. ever had to a genuinely revolutionary organization of workers, so I guess what I'm saying is anarchism is a land of contrasts

idk what posting fake-anarchist tweets proves except that it cost $0 to call yourself an anarchist. as an organizing philosophy, in the US context, anarchism is highly effective for improving material conditions for people in ways that ML thinking just... isnt

So am I correct in understanding that anarchists don't like participating in electoralism because they don't think there should be political offices at all?

Well, I think your individual liberty would be better served by engaging with the political forces that affect it. And also that the reason an anarchist society wouldn't make it to space is that it wouldn't last for more than a few years, but that's a different topic mila kunis posted:these "tankies" seem to be doing far more good in the world than any anarchists ever have I'm gonna need a tldr

ML revolutions go as far as state capitalism and then sell out to The Man.

The only material gains for the working class that have survived the mismanagement of corrupt leadership and oligarchs are those which were taken by movements of the working class. If your movement is top down it is doomed to fail.

all the theory and poo poo about how the revolution would begin and be secured is cool i guess my main point is, in the US i really do think anarchist thinking and organizing is a better way to shield ourselves from bumps & scrapes while the western empires collapse around us. I've been houseless before and dealt with other struggles, and the solidarity and aid i've found from anarchists (and the skills i've learned from them) is probably why I'm still alive and here to post with all you pinkos if a communist revolution is really going to save humanity one day, it won't be born in the west.

i think contemporary anarchism in the U.S., when you strip out the aesthetics and recalled symbols from the past (spain etc.), is more like a set of ethical principles wedded to horizontalist organizing techniques. that's fine and i'm not knocking it, but i think the social conditions and concrete reality of U.S. society today is very different from interwar spain or the russian empire in the early 20th century which saw anarchist movements compete with socialist movements at the time, attracting peasants into their movements who looked back nostalgically at the horizontalism of the peasant commune together with various romantic border-hopping adventurers

there was an anarchist bookfair here and it was funny to me because these smelly, train-hopping crusties rolled into town with little pop-up zine distros, and i discovered i could retrace their path to and from the venue while passing back through the area later because there were spraypainted circle-As scattered around. i find that basic disrespect for private property that anarchists have to be charming, like a little angry cloud that passes through the town and leaving graffiti in its wake before moving on to the next town.
