I have been seeing a ton of shitty anarchist takes online lately. It sucks, because pretty much all the anarchists I’ve met in person have been cool.

Okay I have to ask, is this really true? Cuz I’ve had the exact opposite experience, the anarchists I know irl have about the same shitty takes as online ones. And any ML I talk to about this outside of HexBear says the same. So I’m kinda convinced when people says this on HexBear they’re feigning in order to avoid violating the anti-sectarianism rule.
for my part, I’m actually in anarchist spaces offline and it can be really hit or miss.
Some of the ones that I just don’t talk about complex subjects with are the same ones who when they did embrace reading it was only after they went on Reddit to find “what should I be reading as an anarchist” and ending up reading a bunch of sectarian texts from a hundred years ago, glorifying figures that should be cautionary tales. The other kind in this category are the ones fresh out of higher education, thinking they now know how the world works, but not having enough life experience to question liberal academia itself yet.
My entry was via queer theory and a fair number of communists, there’s definitely others out there who have a hard time fitting into Marxist orgs (for a variety of reasons) and gravitate to anarchist spaces for organizing.
My experience has mirroed yours. I will not talk politics with my anarchist friends.
It’s true in my experience. However, that may be because I really only encounter anarchist theory online. In person, any anarchists I know are just busy doing stuff.
What is anarchist electoralism?
“WE NEED TO VOTE FOR KAMALA”
I have gotten a bit of that vote blue shit from anarchist friends too and it’s shocking and mind-boggling, I really can’t understand why people who are opposed to government in general want to throw their support behind Nazis!
hint: it’s the same reason xi allows private businesses to operate in china.

Even if we think it’s unwise you can respect an anarchist partying like it’s 1879 and
Lenin did, Luxemburg did, Mao did.
anarcho-liberals are the worst liberals
Gonna just really loudly say nothing here
Has revisionism ever done more good than “adventurism?”
