Thank you for the recommendation.

You want another useless chain of comments where we just throw catty insults at each other for hours, over and over on whats meant to be a politics forum

Lol realize y ou are the one doing this. I didn’t come in here calling you 16 years old.

You and about 75% of the people on seem incapable of any actual discourse.

Call me a lib and be done with it.

Yes but they did so very limitedly and did not publically support them. France also supported them but only in secret and not during the end of the civil war.

The USSR, along with every other government, chose to remain relavitivly silent when their support ( which was repeatedly asked for ) could have opened the door to greater acceptance by other world powers.

You see that is the anarchist critique of the USSR and communism in general. That the structure of communism still requires the state. And thus they will be similar to capitalist regimes in function & form.

During the Spanish civil war the USSR chose to do the same thing as the US and Britton for the same reasons. To turn their backs on a legitimate left government fighting reactionary fascist rebels. Simply because it would cost to much. Or would make them vulnerable to facists attack.

I appreciate it. I don’t mind people having discourse with me. I’m just tired of being called:

A lib An angry teenager. An anarkiddie

Etc.

Also the USSR refused to openly support Spanish anarchists during the Spanish civil war.

They just let them get eaten alive slowly by the fascists.

I’m not responding to you to argue with you, I’m trying to help you have a less frustrating lemmy experience.

I see. Thanks.

Suggesting someone we don’t like has illegitimate claim to an ideology suggests someone we like has legitimate claim to it.

I guess… Although I’m a little confused.

Imagine Alex Jones says “these “conservatives” in the white are evil,”

But this is different than the OP. This clearly differentiates a sub group. The conservatives in white

If I said these “conservatives” are full of shit. It kinda critizes the term “conservative” as well. And those who call themselves that.

Once again, while I see your point. I still haven’t seen a earnest critique of anarchy on this community. Maybe you can link one?

plenty are willing to offer it and have done so already.

I’m sure your right but mostly I just see anarchist bashing.

Maybe you can link some post with earnest anarchist critques? That’s really the reason I’m here to see real critiques of anarchy so I can learn more.

for you it’s not very interesting to come and criticise ML ideology, I suggest you formulate your criticism as questions.

I’m not here to critize ML, really. I just don’t want to constantly see anarchists being bashed.

I’m here to learn. But I’m not gonna stick around just to see the same weak insults be thrown around. Its becoming apparent that this community doesn’t really care tho.

We should’ve been nicer to hormonal 16-year-olds who scold us

And there is it.

You sound like the people I played halo 1 with. Lmao.

Did you also bang my mom last night?

You are plainly taking this in bad faith, they don’t mean anarchists who do support revolution and they could hardly be more clear in that fact. Try rereading once before denouncing an entire instance of fellow communists.

I’ve stated this in other comments:

These kinds of posts are the only ones I see regarding anarchy. Only calling them “anarchkiddiez” or libs.

Its not clear to a person who is newer here that there is a difference. And Further I know from experiance many people In the community really do think anarchist are fake leftist…

Frankly, its gets old going from Lemmy world seeing communist bashing just to come here and see anarchist bashing.

It makes me feel like I am not welcome any where on Lemmy.

I see that more clearly now. I don’t want to block any leftist community on Lemmy. I don’t think that’s a good solution long term.

But many people have commented the same thing. So I will consider it. Maybe I just won’t engage with y’alls community.

I appreciate your comment.

The reality is there are a lot of usufferable anarchists (especially online) who refuse to engage with real theory or history.

I get that. I really do. Ive seen some of this myself. And I can understand and appreciate people calling them out. But I Just feel that they are too often becoming the complete face of anarchy on leftist Lemmy communities.

Yes, some here go too far with it, and I do not agree, but I see where they are coming from.I

I would also like to point out, that this same thing that happens on Lemmy dot world. But for commies.

Libs go and find the least educated, loudest idiot calling themselves a communists and take screen shots too post on tankiejerk.

Its really just cheap shots IMO.

I am mildly curious why, if it hypothetically was attacking anarchism in general, that would be “punching down”.

I say punching down because the the majority of active leftists communities on Lemmy are dominated by MLs and other commies. & I see a lot of general hate towards anarchists. which is apparently a much smaller of a group.

No the projects that I’m apart of are often with people who are very supportive of anarchy. Or are anarchists themselves. I really only see the anarchy bashing when I come here…

OK but these are the only posts I see on here regarding anarchy. I see pretty Much “anarkiddys” And things like “anarchist just wanna be petty Bourgeoisie”. Or memes just talking trash.

(self styled “anarchists”) it should’ve been clear

This alone doesn’t convey that there are accept able forms of anarchy on this community. Its just bashing.

I will gladly comment on this.

Anarchist are anti-hierarchy. Authority is usually hierarchically designed and implemented. And thus we as anarchists condem it.

This statement ignores other forms of power. Like non-hierarchical power structures. Mutual aid groups and community self defense. These and many other forms of direct action do not require authority or hierarchy to be powerful.

We can be powerful, productive and non-hierarchical. We can have groups of people working together solving problems without bosses, masters, cops etc.

Y’all aren’t critizing idoleogy y’all are just calling me a lib or an angry teenager…

This comment once again has no real critique. Am I not allowed to complain?

My critique of this community is there no room for anarchist here of any kind.

Which i stated above.

I can deal with post critizing anarchy. I’m just not seeing that. Alls I see are post calling anarchist fake. Or calling them libs. Or calling them angry teenagers.

Soo what it sounds like is there isn’t room for anarchist on lemmygrad? Are you willing to share with me some critiques of anarchism that are not based in literal name calling?

Cuz I will read, but I’m not gonna stick around and get called a lib over and over again.
