Anarchists hating Anarcho-Communists is hilarious to me, because AnCom is nothing more than a bastardization of Marxism to make it palatable to Anarcho-kiddies, without them having to accept that our revolutions have succeeded, or that Marxist-Leninists tend to be right about a lot of stuff. It’s in the most honest sense, their greatest ally in their misaligned social war against MLs. But, no, Anarchists are so sectarian online that even the mention of “communism” in any form gets them red in the face.
Also, we have a similar progression, both radicalized closer to ML in 2016 - likely both because of the Trump presidency and what it brought.
Pretty much, yeah. Trump was the second thing that thrust me so far left, the first one was 2013 with the murder of MIchael Brown. From the standpoint of privilege I sit at as a white person, I wasn’t FULLY aware of police brutality, but MAN I joined a party where the founder is a second generation Black Panther and one of the requirements is to do some reading. He taught me a lot. Learning what I do, being the Prime Minister of my chapter and trying to do my part for my community (can’t do much without my car rn and since I just moved it’s a little difficult) and also learning while I have some down time.
