Are you an Anarchist? The answer might surprise you!
Rules:
- Be respectful
- Don't be a nazi
- Argue about the point and not the person
- This is not the place to debate the merits of anarchism itself. While discussion is encouraged, getting in your “epic dunks on the anarkiddies” is not. As a result of the instance’s poor moderation policies and hostility toward anarchists by default, lemmygrad users are encouraged not to post here, though not explicitly disallowed if they aren’t just looking to start a fight.

@BarrelAgedBoredom @purahna Those on the left supporting post-soviet Russia tend to fall into two camps, I've noticed:
Nostalgic tankies who love seeing old Soviet military gear parading through central Moscow, and just want the USSR back (I get it but it's a terrie basis on which to stake out a political stance)
Edgelord "brocialists" trying to play the intellectual with the "enemy of my enemy is my friend" card. Probably uses words like "degenerate" and "kulak" and is on their way to being a straight up fascist, but are too far up their own arse to notice.
This is a big thing that turned me off lemmygrad and expanded my political horizon (I was rather hardcore MLM). The more I've read and interacted in different groups, the more I've realised my inherent stance is anti-authoritarian and seek a collectivist way of life.
