GENZ is already coopted by the Tankies, and a very few of them are really engaged with anarchism at some level. This will take decades to undo. The Seattle generation left us with Chomsky and Bookchin, now we are ripening the fruits

On the bright side, the Bookchin acolytes will all fade away when Kurdistan gets statehood since they're so tied to that project

I'd say the issue more or less stems from the assumption of left unity being a good thing. From there a lot of these people end up joining broad leftist groups that end up being glorified book clubs that put the works of Marx, Engels, and Lenin on a pedestal. Many times it's simply because these groups are the only existing ones in the area to be involved within and being critical of these people can risk exclusion on the grounds of "breaking left unity".
