    Love Anarchist philosophy, I think it’s literally radical as hell, but holy shit Anarchists are just as whiny as Tankies sometimes.

    Rather than posting infighting memes or debating online, try to educate and learn more yourself, build up your community, actually do something. These memes are just cringe.

      That’s the funny thing to me about commies or anarchists arguing with each other online, I feel like most serious people in both groups don’t even bother with that bs, and work together IRL at actions without thinking about it.

        Yes, it’s either the terminally online, or the people that have managed to actually make it far enough that it even matters. In the west, it absolutely doesn’t matter, except perhaps in revolutionary strategy, ie Anarcho-Syndicalism vs Vanguardism vs etc.

        Day to day, the same exact praxis persists: educate yourself, improve your life and understanding, advocate for positive change, unionize, build up your community, and educate others. It doesn’t matter what leftist tendency you personally prefer, the praxis on a day to day level is the same.

            Revolutionarily, I agree. Especially in such a non-unionized country like the US, Syndicalism seems more apt than hoping for a Vanguard Party.

              ???

              Vanguard parties will always emerge as some proles will be radicalized sooner than others, the difference in union strategy is that syndies want less centralization between the radical unions and dont percieve themselves as the vanguard.

                Depends on what you consider to be a Vanguard, whether you mean an actual, defined party or simply more educated, radicalized proles leading others.

        Because if you’re not advocating and actually doing praxis, then you should be spending time on yourself and enjoying life, or working to support yourself and those around you. Infighting memes are just cringe.

        There are too few hours in the day to spend any time with infighting memes, lmao
