I’m hearing an implication that all anarchists are opposed to industry. Is this what you’re saying?
Nahh, definitely not. Big respect to actual principled anarchists (who don't spend all their energy tearing down and slandering the projects of others seeking liberation).
Ziq is one of those anti-civilization """anarchists""" seeking some kind of reactionary return to pre-industrial or even pre-"civilizational" society because of the belief that the problems of capitalism are actually endemic to post-industrial society itself. You can even go on their blog (raddle) and see them shitting on anarchists for believing a better world is possible. It's weird because at the same time these "anti-civ anarchists" advocate for the end of industrial society, they don't actually believe it's possible except through apocalypse, so their praxis extends to waiting until capitalism destroys the planet and then building their ideal world in the "deserts" left behind. Basically a kind of radical doomerism with politically inert and fed characteristics. The result of becoming conscious of the contradictions and effects of capitalism while never moving beyond the neoliberal worldview of "there is no alternative" which is also why you see them spreading the same usual liberal ahistorical bullshit about the USSR.
Literally "the deserter" (as in sand and this book)
