Like I commented in one of those I think there are an unhealthy fetishization of EZLN by anarchists. The EZLN more than once asserted that they aren't anarchists.

The critique is not to demove people from supporting their struggle or to being interested in learning more about it, the critique is aimed to remove the veil of "revolutionary sanctity" the movement have for many people around the world.
