IRL anarchists here do like, food not bombs and have built shelters for the homeless cause the city wouldn't and a all kinds of great stuff. But when they open their mouths they sound exactly like the ones we are allowed to make fun of here. The fake scotsmen if you will. The seemingly online only anarchists. I've heard them use tankie as a pejorative before seeing it online and are extremely hostile to Marxist lenninists who are open about it and bring suggestions in line with such thought in conversation or meetings. Pointing out that building insulated sheds for the homeless is great but the city will crack down on them as soon as the first tourist season comes that the government decides covid is over for and also shouldn't we be using the fact that regular community groups have had to get together to shelter the homeless as a means of shaming the current government? It might make thr current government do something more instead of pretending to build dual power by doing the government's job for them until it was convenient to tear them down? (Exactly that happened)

I have played ttrpgs with people across the (cool) political spectrum - all the way from hardcore toothbrush stealing tankies to filthy anarchists: I don't understand how ancient beef that nobody at the table has been involved in is enough to make a fucking D&D game dissolve. Never seen something like this, though I have had to kick out creepy chuds for outing themselves saying some heinous shit.

I once had a friend who wouldn't volunteer at a soup kitchen because it was run by trots.
