    I have never understood the disconnect between leadership and party. It never fails, once leadership, fuck party. Maybe the collective needs a leader, not a politician.

    Sneaking in the “leftist and Soviet are the same thing” crap there, I see.

        Maybe I was confused, but with the widespread proliferation of tankies on fedi, I am not ashamed.

          You should be, at least enough to understand why you were wrong.If you take a look on Charlie Brown’s shirt, there’s a flag. The anarchist flag, which are leftists. Leftists that have been regularly slaughtered and oppressed by ML and tankies. And yet, tankies lament the lack of left unity as if they did nothing to destroy it.

            I was, until now, unfamiliar with the anarchist flag. Thank you for teaching me!

            I will never feel shame for the opportunity to learn something new.

              Good on you, that is an excellent attitude. And yes, I sensed that your heart was in the right place. It’s certainly not a crime to not be familiar with the anarchist flag. It’s not something you see regularly hoisted on the threat of violence by a nation.

              Ooh, education time!

              There are actually quite a few anarchist flags. (Not an exhaustive list; just some examples. Ignore that yellow one. That’s for anarcho-capitalism, which is NOT real anarchism, and not even leftism.)

              The one I used in the meme is for anarcho-socialism or anarcho-communism, and is one of the more common and recognizable ones. My personal favorite is just the pure black flag of straight-up anarchism, as I feel it mocks the absurdity of having countries and flags in the first place. Plus it’s kind of badass. But in a meme, the red and black is more recognizable as a flag and not, like, some weird censorship bar.

      it’s all crap; this post was created to re-enforce the idea that leftists are infighting with each other when, in reality, the dispute is between leftists and liberals who think that they’re leftists.

        That’s tankie bullshit.

        You obviously don’t know much about Anarchism. We reject authority and hierarchy, and that includes the authleft. Our dispute is with all who wish to control others.

        And seeing as how you share pro-North Korea content you are undoubtedly one of the types we dispute.

          He’s probably including us Anarchists in the ‘liberals who think that they’re leftists’ category. Because to an auth-left person, anybody who’s not exactly the same kind of auth-left is a ‘liberal’ (or a fascist; they use the two terms interchangably).
