Whenever you criticize authoritarianism as practiced by groups or individuals that position themselves on the left, at least one person shows up to invalidate your criticism, without really engaging with what you brought up, and that not by mere logical reasoning, but by applying an ideological believe that thrives for some sort of unity, and just pushes that believe with what ever logical fallacy suits at the moment best.

I don’t get it. What’s the problem with criticism against authoritarianism in an anarchist forum?

    the lack of moderation since so many authoritarians comment on our posts is annoying too.

      so many authoritarians comment

      Hmm, are you sure about that? Of all the recent comments here I can only think of one (the one with the neo-soviet propaganda) that was clearly authoritarian. Edit: ok two, there was also one with a link to a text written by Trotsky.
