I am an orthodox ML, for the record, but I don't buy into dunking on Anarchists because we all want the same goal yet we have different ideas about how to achieve it. That is actually awesome. That is actually really fucking cool. I find it comforting. We are trying multiple attempts, and the law of averages says that is far better than just doing one thing. Capitalism is a hydra, wielding class and race antagonisms like weapons to bludgeon us all. Maybe it will require attacks from multiple fronts to bring this wretched beast down.
Every actual anarchist I've met outside in the real world doing work has been cool as shit. It's only the fake internet ones that don't actually do anything that I ever seem to conflict with. Particular the peculiar "anarchists" that claim to be reformist and only ever talk about electoral shit.... ???

I dunk on "anarchists" but only the ones whose knowledge of theory is COMMUNISM IS AUTHORITARIAN!!!!
The last one was a 16 year old.

Anarchists are cool as shit. I wish they won the Spanish Civil War.
My spanish comrades frequently say the same.
I heard it referred to as an ecology or ecosystem of tactics. I believe that was from Srsly Wrong.
Delightful.
