So I bought a heap of cheap manufacturered soviet medals on Aliexpress, and I occasionally will let people in my org award them to each other for praiseworthy stuff. But now there’s anarchists in my group and they might find that offensive. So what’s the anarchist version?

I swear to God, this isn’t a bit.

    bear-despair I would feel honored if anarchists thought my deeds merit an award even though we have differing views

      I’m sure some people would be cool. But many some leftists still equate the Soviet Union with totalitarianism. Anyhow, a Lenin award might not be an award to them.

        I don’t get how you could equate Lenin, who basically became incapacitated in 1922, to the worst excesses of the Soviet regime in the 30s. But I guess anarchists like not reading history.
