There's a critique of mass organisation / mass society that comes from post-left anarchy, if you're interested in looking into it. Unfortunately I don't know good readings offhand or I'd post some. If anybody does know good readings, please do post some, I'd like to read them.
I'd like it if people made decent memes calling out anarchists - from my perspective that meme points to a legitimate critique of classical Marxism regarding state-forms. Which is to say, it would be nice if instead of cutting down on critique by anarchists of other tendencies, that those tendencies would start doing some critiquing of anarchists and others themselves.

Tankies don't help radical spaces, they destroy them. I'm not welcoming to tankies for that reason.
What raddle could use is more demsoc types; people that are actually capable of growth and not attracted to a creepy dictator-personality-cult where any thought that threatens to expose their dogma as being dangerously reactionary is furiously stamped out.
Authoritarian leftism is a deadend. Raddle was never posing as an space for authoritarians. When they come here thinking it's for them, they're always in for a rude awakening. Those that stick around are bound to clash with anarchists because they represent everything we struggle against.

Are you a vanguardist?

I mean either you support a vanguard or you don't. I only call MLs that defend Stalin / Mao tankies. If you're talking about the person who was offended by my anti-stalin meme then yeah I consider them a tankie. I think any anarchist would.

Those anarchists weren't anarchists and I was just trying to understand your perspective by asking about your politics.

It's literally impossible to support vanguard hierarchy while being an anarchist. It's like saying "I'm vegan but I eat cheeseburgers".

I asked if you were a Vanguardist which has a very specific definition. Whatever you're on about obviously has nothing to do with this convo about radical leftist politics.
