        I read this article and it's absolute drivel.

        • "there is little to nothing to distinguish between Stalin and Hitler"
        • anarchism is right-wing because strongmen would immediately create oppressive autocracies

        Get fucked, Doug

          "Right wing reactionaries will attempt to further entrench themselves in the political landscape when faced with any form of left wing agitation. Leftist political projects are therefore right wing."

            I've never seen an unironic horseshoe theorist also be so insufferably, terminally smug.

            Also I'm not a philosophy professor but I am pretty sure consequentialism does not work that way.

        So fucking facile, of course it's about power, but power of who and to do what Douglas! That's literally politics. Jesus christ.
