You’ll see anarchists praising Rosa Luxemburg, who if they had actually read her writings – they would see that she was very clearly one of the “authoritarian” socialists that they rail against so much.

You see them praise the Black Panthers, who were supported financially by the DPRK and aligned themselves with the Juche ideology of Kim Il Sung.

They even praise Thomas Sankara, who purged anarchists and arrested syndicalists.

If these people had succeeded, i have no doubt in my mind that anarchists would call them “tankies,” they would call their experiments “capitalism with a red flag.” And I also have no doubt in my mind that if the October Revolution, Chinese Revolution had been crushed, they would hail Lenin and Mao as proletarian heroes.

      You almost certainly support regimes who would have me executed for being queer

      The final battlecry of the faux-“leftist” who refuses to actually engage with revolutionaries who actually do things.

      If you engaged with us in good faith whatsoever you would realize that a disproportionate percentage of us are LGBT+. We’re also scientific socialists and believe in something called nuance.

      I am certain that you believe RFA nonsense regarding LGBT rights in AES nations. You should have seen the resolute joy permeating this site when Cuba passed the new family code. Vietnam will hold a similar referendum in 2024 and I have a ton of hope the Vietnamese people will make the correct choice. Being a worker’s democracy, I believe they will.

      How does it feel knowing the AES world is progressing at 10x speed the capitalist world ever has? How does it feel to see successful socialism in action while you can’t even name a successful anarchist territory, yet claim the Zapatistas do not have the right to differentiate themselves from western “anarchism”?

      I respectfully await Blahaj’s self-inflicted demise, and for you to study.

          Yes. Retreat and have le epic last word. We will continue to fight for LGBT+ liberation in reality while you waste time owning the tankies online. Enjoy.

                    You used to have several dedicated communities to ridiculing anarchists. I’m not even, I wandered in here because I saw another fucking post spreading the lie that anarchists are not actual revolutionaries and do not support actual revolution. Jesus fucking christ.

                    Im not doing this man. I’m dilating right now. I’m less than 2 months out of having my genitals inverted surgery. I’m tired of authoritarian socialism pretending to like anarchists. You murder us time and time again. And then come up with every possible excuse as per why. I’m just done with it. I dont want to talk here, report my post and ill be gone. I’m not a masochist, I’m not into being attacked by multiple different people all putting out different arguments at the same time in rapid succession. I only have like 10 minutes left before i have to continue on with other post surgical care that I cannot type during. So please, let’s just both move on.

            The soviet union murdered gay men and women. China to this day actively pushes back against all gay rights.

            But yeah sure

      My cause is the welfare of the working class.

      Diabetics dying without insulin after the dissolution of industrial society is apparently good for the working class.

      I’m always curious about this when I talk to argumentive anarchists. When was the last time you read a book? Like, any book?

        Today actually. Reading is almost the only thing I do, besides scroll this website and dilate. Penile inversion recovery takes up most of your free time, and the only thing you can really do during most of that time is read or scroll.
