    Technically the og anarchists fought the soviets too, Marxism and anarchism weren’t friends until they had to be in the west due to their mutual irrelevance.

      How will they mesh with the nazis of the armed forces though?

      One of their posts seems to address this:

      Why do anarchists go to war?

      Many people still do not understand why the anarchists suddenly decided to go to war against Russia.

      This is partly due to Russian propaganda, which positions Russia as an antifascist force fighting neonazi regime in Ukraine. Partly because many people see Putin as a fighter against USA imperialism.

      The fact is that the current war is not war between Ukraine and Russia, but the war for the future of all countries of the former Soviet Union. The Russian government has been the guarantor of dictatorial regimes throughout the CIS for the long time. It supports them in difficult times, as it was in cases of Belarus and Kazakhstan.

        These words ring pretty hallow when the people fighting alongside you are Nazis and NATO, probably the most efficient anarchist killers in history

        There is no victory or future for anarchism under NATO, the Euro, or the hellscape Eastern Europe would become should neo-Nazis realize their ambitions

      Marxists also opposed the Soviet Union. There was plenty of comradeship between anarchists and (many) other socialists outside the West and while both "were relevant".

        …there are pros and cons here but I mean true relevance when anarchists were still a thing between ww1 and ww2. (Technically I can bring up the competition between the first and second internationales but whatever)
