... So when you say "Anarchists Unite", do you also mean Anarco Capitalists?...... Because that seems unwise to me.

Ancaps aren't anarchists.

They aren't? Isn't that like saying that Catholics aren't Christians? (I'm seriously not trying to mock you, I'm honestly asking)
π: 0 β©: 1
No, they literally aren't. Anarchism is about mazimizing autonomy and democratizing society. Ancaps are literally anti-democracy.

Well, glad I know that now. Thank you for clearing that up.
And a side note, its funny when right wingers keep mentioning how they want everything privatized, and "smaller government", but they also hate Somalia... which logically would be their paradise. If their words are to be believed of course.

I see this has attracted the classic none Anarchist lecturing Anarchists about Anarchism routine.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah. Makes me question my choices. If I was a Marxist-Leninist I could at least look forward to having him shot.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah but only before 1989 you could. Bit hard to exercise arbitrary state power without a state.

Is not "anarchist solidarity" a contradiction in terms?
π: 0 β©: 2
Define both anarchist and solidarity.
π: 1 β©: 1
Anarchist a person who promotes disorder or excites revolt against any established rule, law, or custom.
Solidarity union or fellowship arising from common responsibilities and interests.

That's not anarchism. Anarchism, as a political ideology, is
the belief that social hierarchies should be dismantled and replaced
with horizontal networks where the people control the means of
production communally and based upon direct consensus democracy.
That very process requires solidarity.

That's Communism not anarchism.
π: 0 β©: 1
Communism is the belief and opinion that we as a society can and should achieve communist society,
that is a stateless, classless, moneyless society where the means of production are owned and managed
democratically by the entire population, but on a local (that isΒ communal) scale.
Communist ideology can generally be divided into two main factions, authoritarian and non-authoritarian.
Authoritarian communism, e.g. Marxist-Leninism and Maoism, states that in order to achieve communist
society (as described earlier) an era ofΒ state socialismΒ is needed, mainly to change the mindset of the people
from one of capitalistic self-interest, to one of solidarity. State socialism has, throughout the years, been tried
and failed in several countries, because it fails to account for the fact that power corrupts.
The other main faction of communism, that is the non-authoritarians (autonomist Marxist, anarchist-communists),
argues that a state is not necessary for the establishment of communist society. Instead it proposes that
peoples' behavior change based on the systems around them, making the period of state socialism an unnecessary
step. I belong to the second category; more specifically, I'm an anarchist-communist, drawing most of his inspiration
from people like Peter Kropotkin and Emma Goldman.
Communism is a big and important part of the anarchist traition.

Anyone with a little pony for a avatar can't be taken seriously.

All the time when dealing with children.

Respond to the fucking point or admit that you are incapable to.
π: 0 β©: 1
Isn't time for you to be in bed with your little pony.
π: 0 β©: 1
I'll take that as an admission of defeat.
π: 0 β©: 1
I honestly find it astonishing that you don't respond to my argument, start mocking me for one of my interests, and then thin kyou're somehow superior.

no, in fact solidarity is a basic anarchist principle.
π: 0 β©: 1
Not in all forms of Anarchism.
π: 0 β©: 2
yes, in all forms of anarchism solidarity is a mane tenant.
π: 0 β©: 1
Not in individualist anarchism.
π: 0 β©: 1
yes, even individualist anarchism.
π: 0 β©: 1
You're thinking of Fascism.
π: 0 β©: 1
no, anarchism as a political philosophy categorically favors social solidarity.
π: 0 β©: 1
individualist anarchists reject social anarchism
π: 0 β©: 1
all anarchism is social.
π: 0 β©: 1
what is funny exactly?
π: 0 β©: 1
Thinking that all anarchist's give a dam about people.
π: 0 β©: 1
well categorically anarchists are for social solidarity. what's really laughable is your understanding of anarchist theory.
π: 0 β©: 1
Anarchism does not offer a fixed body of doctrine from a single particular world view, instead fluxing and flowing as a philosophy. [18] There are many types and traditions of anarchism, not all of which are mutually exclusive. [19] Anarchist schools of thought can differ fundamentally, supporting anything from extreme individualism to complete collectivism. [1

that's a terrible misrepresentation. anarchism: a political philosophy that seeks to question all hierarchies in human society and dismantle the ones that are found to be illegitimate. anarchism advocates the radical reorganization of society into horizontal free-associations operating on consensus democracy and mutual aid.Β

Go argue with Wikipedia then.Β There are anarchist's that only care about themselves.
π: 0 β©: 1
so Wikipedia is more of an authority on anarchism then someone who has spent the last year and a half studying the movement? yea that makes a lot of sense. Β

I don't know who the hell you are and I've met anarchist's who would not agree with .
π: 0 β©: 1
just because one claims they are an anarchist does not mean they are. you also don't have to take my word for it. if you stop treating wiki as gospel and actually study the movement you will see what i'm talking about.
π: 0 β©: 1
You're right you could be making stuff up about anarchism.
π: 0 β©: 1
well thanks for considering what i have to say.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes. Anarchism is socialist and therefore inherently solidaric.
