    Yeah the real world tends to be less stark in regards to this stuff and more complicated based on situation. The Venezuelan socialists are all sorts of leftists, including a lot of rural indigenous people living in small horizontal communes. I frequently see the EZLN claimed as anarchist, and while they do promote anarchist theory, they're also collaborators with Cuba.

    Internet arguments are often stuck in the 1930s, back when socialism was still trying to get off the ground in the first place.
