This doesn’t make any sense to me. I know they aren’t Marxists, but the goals of communism are people-centric. We’re trying to achieve a better society for all people, so why exclude certain groups from that?

    Thank you. While I can understand some idealists (even if their theories fail since the world is not an ideal place), I totally do not get anarchists. How we can build big things, like intercontinental railway, or big water or nuclear power plants, if there will be no government? If everyone would live in small decentralized communes? I did not considered them to the left to ML, just rather closer to libs. But I am not so politically mature.

      I don’t consider them to the left of us either. I can respect an anarchist who is willing to work with us, but most are just radical liberals. They see us to the “right” of them because they think “authoritarianism” is a right wing characteristic. Like the right libertarians whose political spectrum is lib to auth rather than left to right.

        I see. I think they do not want to acknowledge that liberalism and “freedom of speech” sooner or later may lead to fascism. As once did.
