A reminder that the thumbs in the FBI don't distinguish between us, and it is foolish to get in fights over theory nerd shit when there is no immediate situation where any of it matters.
Yes it does. We are so weak because we are not organized into disciplined parties using democratic centralism. If only we could get more people on board...
I mean, it matters, but what matters more is working with the people around you by any means. Formalizing an organizational structure, tendency, and party line / philosophical doctrine comes second. When you are a single person, you are neither a vanguard party or an affinity group.
Small, trusted circle of people that do actual praxis that you're not supposed to talk about. FNB is where you'd meet other anarchists in larger numbers, but you don't do anything that'd get anyone in legal trouble. An organization may have many affinity groups, or an affinity group may just be you and your buds doing your own thing outside the context of any larger group. By keeping the groups of people doing things that piss the feds off small and trusted, it makes it extremely difficult for law enforcement to infiltrate. This enables an affinity group to take actions you'd never do as a formal organization.
It doesn't have to be breaking the law in Minecraft either. Affinity groups are also great for doing boring stuff like making zines, cleaning up fascist graffitti, et cetera without having to endlessly argue with libs about it. Because you all trust each other, you can just do shit without needing anyone else's permission or approval, which is useful because larger organizations are a fucking sucker for decision paralysis. There's still utility in larger organizations like resources, outreach, et cetera, but you have to do all that shit with the understanding that there is 100% a snitch somewhere.
