Anarchists are in this picture too. Gatekeeping about who's anti-authoritarian enough is one example.
I mean, they have a point, you literally can't go "but Lenin created vanguardism" as a reason why the all powerful single party state supposedly controlled by the "will of the people" and get upset when people call you out for being an authoritarian.
Anarchists gate keeping tankies isn't some moral wrong, it's just learning from history, because they would rather work with literal Nazis/ ethno-fascists than with an anarchist, the anarchists were the first to be shot by all the fascists, German, Romanian, Italian, or Soviet.
Yeah, but even if you allow that, they'll gatekeep each other over dietary systems, for voting or not voting, over which economic systems are too market, over who was on the right side of a personal falling out, for believing in rules of any kind and on and on. There never is an end to it.
I don't know who you've been hanging out with, but anarchists don't care if you're vegan or not, and generally their issue isn't with markets, it's with the system giving all the power to a small group of feudal lords, but I think the issue is that you only know anarchists by shitty online memes, maybe you should go get in contact with your local lawn dealer
Sure. All the anarchists fucking up for the last 150 years don't count. You folks in this thread swear there's different, cool ones; they're just conveniently invisible.
And yet, pretty much none of them like ancaps. Mutualists or whatever other in-between are prime targets for purging from your not-a-political-party.
"fucking up" interesting way to spell murdered and betrayed
I'm just going to say to that, that anarchist infighting exists, and you can't just blame everything on everyone else.
