I was organizing with a group of (mostly) anarchists today. In my experience every anarchist I've organized with in real life is cool af and takes their praxis very seriously with major time commitments focused on improving the lives of workers and lumpen. They are usually hotter than any other tendency too shrug-outta-hecks. No whining about "tankies" or Kronstadt, just showing up to meetings, finding creative solutions and putting in the work.

Despite our nominal non-sectarian rule, I feel like there is still general derision towards anarchists here so I just wanted to remind everyone that these internet anarcho-Atlanticists on [insert dunk_tank instance or subreddit here] are just an online phenomenon and not real life. (Have I met those guys IRL too? Yes, but not in real organizing just in book clubs etc and they are tedious but there's still more to work with than than a lib.)

So here's to our anarchist comrades maduro-coffee keep keeping it real

First "anarchist" I ever met was stanning Tulsi's primary run, it can mean a variety of things

I used to know an anarchist who wanted the US to invade Iran.

Yeah even offline is a crap shoot.

At least one guy had pretty legit opinions and knowledge. Was a professor for African American studies and active in mutual aid groups and what not. Just a complete idiot that thought destroying random aesthetic property was praxis
