Joe Biden’s new anti-terrorism initiative classifies “anarchist violent extremists” that “oppose all forms of capitalism, corporate globalization, and governing institutions, which are perceived as harmful to society” as “domestic violent extremists.” pic.twitter.com/GKmsQsGBaA— Ford Fischer (@FordFischer) June 18, 2021
As I explained in the other comment, this is not about anarchists. It doesn't mean what it says, it doesn't matter if you say you're communist or whatever, you're still an anarchist to them. Anarchist is just a catch all term they decided to use for anti capitalist agitation which sounds scary but less red-scary. They don't give a shit what you call yourself, you're anticapitalist and you're protesting ergo you're an anarchist.
Sectarian jokes can be quite funny when they don't hold a value judgement about any particular tendency within them. The problem in most sectarian behaviour lies in one side telling another side that they are wrong or bad. I hold zero hostility to anarchists or their tendency and everything I say about every other tendency is always playful and strictly neutral in terms of value judgement of their tendency. The only enemy is capitalism, every leftist tendency is my friend or more.
I have a solution for you anarchists but you're not gonna like it.
:honk-commie:

This is one interesting way to achieve left unity :thonk:
what, heighten the contradictions until petty sectarianism seems blatantly absurd in the face of complete annihilation?

Why 60%? Am I missing a joke?

Ahh. No. But all the anarchists should just be communists now. Problem solved.
...Sort of. They'll just add communists to DVEs too if it happens though.

It was supposed to be a sectarian joke.
I'm not sure that I'm "letting comrades get killed" though. What power or ability do I have to prevent the state doing anything to anarchists?
