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

Oooo iโ€™m tired of posting & reading memes, how does one meet (and even participate in activities with) our anarchist comrades ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿฆง

Volunteer for something with a leftists vibe - soup kitchens, food not bombs, security for leftist events, mutual aid stuff.
There's usually a few in those groups, and it's an easy way to get an in. If you've got a local punk bar then visit that as well. Maybe help them host a "riot night" if you've got video-editing experience (a riot night is when you hook up a projector to a montage of cops getting beat up, and then that is just run in the background the whole night. Good fun).

In short: go outside

Seconding food not bombs. Feeding the hungry is probably the easiest possible way to find us IRL
