What’s wrong with syndicalism? I was watching Thomas Sankara: the upright man, and he specifically said down with anarcho-syndicalism. They seem to be one of the more decent strains of anarchism, the USSR supported them in Catalonia, maybe it’s my bias as someone who was introduced to Marxism through syndicalism, but I can’t see much wrong with them. Is it a lack of materialist analysis?
I liked this from the reddit comments:
“Anarchism is a metaphysical, moral theory which postulates ahistorical, acontextual “truths” such as: violence and domination are immoral, therefore we oppose them in all situations, etc etc etc.”
“Anarchism takes the moral categories inherited from bourgeois philosophy and ethics (such as the individual subject, possessor of rights and property, etc) as given, and tries to go beyond them while still basing itself on these categories. Marxism critiques these moral categories and points a way beyond them, through revolutionary practice.”
edit: and I liked that post from aimixin and parentis_shotgun as well
