Thanks for this comment, I consider myself an anarchist and sometimes feel worried about the judgement from other socialists if they have certain ideas about anarchists. I've thought a lot about it but I feel the same way about the distinction these days, any organic political movement will have a syncretism of ideas anyway.
That's the party line of hexbear, we avoid dumb struggle sessions because we know arguing about the specifics of implementation are pointless unless we have an actual organized party.
And you'll never organize by whining and complaining about ideology.
Fred Hampton formed the rainbow coalition with the Young Patriots, we can form coalitions with other socialist/anarchist groups and argue about other stuff when it makes sense to.
This is a key feature of why it's such a refreshing space. I have argued about stupid shit with so many people in my life and I'm sick of it. I thought debate was useful, and it is, but there comes a point where the sides know what side they are on and talking is useless.
Yeah, and as some people have pointed out we do have some dumb struggle sessions, but for the most part they're less focused on ideological grounds (anymore) and are more focused on weird stuff like cats and food.
