An anarchist complaining about somebody “stoking political division to no real end” is certainly some kind of irony isn’t it?

- AnarchismIsCool 3y agoWhat do you think anarchist means?
- thepasswordis 3y agoI don't want to get into a political argument, man. I think most anarchists can't really agree on what a definition is. It's unfalsifiable.
- AnarchismIsCool 3y agoJust go read some stuff I guess. Everyone thinks it's accelerationism and while there are extremists who inhabit both camps, like every other ideology, it's mostly just a community focused reduction in authoritarian power structures thing. As I said elsewhere, there are actual agreed upon definitions for this stuff. Careful not to go too far into the "everything is unknowable" hole.
- yareal 3y agoI'm also an anarchist. I guarantee that the person above me and I disagree about some political things. But also, I guarantee we do agree about a lot of the foundational thought and theory. Things like mutual aid, the right to self determination, local communities knowing what their communities need, and more. Anarchist theory has a ton of practical and academic work over the past few centuries. It's not "the purge", it's a pretty well defined set of principles centered around building a society that primarily focuses on well being for all.

- AnarchismIsCool 3y agoThen why say anything in the first place because facts don't matter and everything is unknowable?
