All my communist posts keep getting deleted there. It is crazy to me that a workers subreddit is not communist 😵‍💫. They are not going to achieve anything by being neoliberals.

    Reading anarchist theory was integral in my becoming a communist. I will leave it up to interpretation as to whether that is an insult or compliment towards anarchism.

      To be fair, some early founding members of the CPC had also experimented with anarchist theory and eventually gravitated towards reading Marx.

        From my understanding, a young Mao held many anarchist leanings. Helps explain the party’s more leftist (ultra- or otherwise) praxis at times when compared to the contemporary CPSU, which had more of a history of direct conflict with anarchists.

        I read both Marxist and anarchist theory initially and found the Marxists works to make a far more compelling argument compounded with a successful history and a failed anarchist history
