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.
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.
I’m not arguing with 10 people at once, none of whom are interested in any actual discussion. Please tell me how because I’m an anarchist i don’t read books and must be a racist lmao. Good bye 👋
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.

u forgot somethin homie
HAHAHAHAHAHA GET IT BECAUSE ANARCHIST HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
nah because you’re a troll lol. We have anarchists here who act like adults, believe it or not!
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.
Which is something that has been covered by Cuba’s free healthcare program since 2008 while governments in the West are passing legislation to undermine trans people’s rights.
I hear you. I still disagree. Congratulations on the surgery and I am sorry for the side effects.
We do not pretend to trust anarchists. They are at best temporary allies to Marxism-Leninism, or better yet they cease to call themselves anarchists and pursue an actual, practiced method of achieving socialism.
I recommend Stalin’s writings on anarchism and why “left unity” is a myth that Marxist-Leninists do not adhere to.
No Marxism-Leninist would turn their guns on anarchists unless it was in self-defense, like Makhno’s band of pillagers devastating rural communities under the guise of “liberation” (basically setting them up for slaughter) or the Kronstadt sailors violent antisemitism.
Anarchists joined Mao in droves. They ceased being anarchists and in many cases simply joined the ‘left’ wing of the party. There are constantly debates about how and when the state should begin to be dismantled. It’s usually a far longer process than anyone would like, but at least there’s a means and an end, rather than an end with no means, as is common in anarchist thinking.
I used to consider myself an anarchist but then I read about the Red Guards in China and how many abuses they got away with… because lack of technology and reach made party oversight basically impossible. This is always the effect of too much decentralization too quickly, violent ambitious people weaponizing revolutionary facades to garner power and commit violence. There must be some form of centralized power structure to ensure the rights of the people are being properly maintained and their needs properly met.
As a parting recommendation, I suggest Engels’ On Authority, assuming you have not read it. Personally, it shattered much of my anarchist thinking.
Best of luck with what you’re going through!
The soviet union murdered gay men and women. China to this day actively pushes back against all gay rights.
But yeah sure
