MLs literally scream about Anarchists being children online. I agree that that should be how it's approached, but it's simply not the reality in most online left spaces, especially here.
Tbh, I don't see this stuff very often and never really have despite how much people bring up MLs and how viscous they are on this site. Maybe I don't go on the threads where it happens or something, but I would say those people are just taking the piss out of anarchists and maybe it's a bit rude and not useful to the anarchist being made fun of and should be avoided, but it isn't a "cultural elitism" but a real substantive political difference.
MLs can get toxic (as can Anarchists occasionally). When that political difference becomes the norm, one group tends to dominate the other. IDK if I can provide you with any concrete examples on here since I didn't star any of my or other peoples' discussions. I'm going to try to go to bed now though. Have a nice night.
