I feel like I’ve been seeing lots of anti-anarchist shitposts lately. Is there some new Lemmy tea à la leftist-infighting that I’m unaware of? Or is it just typical rage bait from ml?
I think Chomsky turning out to be part of the pedophile conspiracy Israel uses to control the West has called into question if Anarchism is simply libertarianism, but edgy, and part of the intelligence community’s efforts to control a “compatible left” ala Foucault and all the phenomenological academia the CIA is publicly known to be behind the success of.
Anarchy existed long before Noam Chomsky…? Also, full disclosure, I didn’t even know Noam Chomsky was associated with Anarchist thought. I only know his name since it comes up in linguistics (I’m not a linguist just ADHD and interested in conlangs)
Anyway, I don’t really see how anarchy can at all be libertarianism since the latter isn’t socialist…? Perhaps I’m just not familiar enough with modern libertarianism, but iirc libertarians tend to very strongly believe in private property and keeping businesses free from government regulation. Neither of which are beliefs shared by any anarchists I’ve ever met.
On the note of CIA control, isn’t the easiest method of controlling leftists trying to create division and separation between leftists because smaller groups cause less of a threat? And, if that’s the case, aren’t these anti-anarchist memes a form of that exact kind of control tactics?
To be fair, Lemmy.ml doesn’t generally poke the anarchists much, even if MLs disagree with anarchists on many things. We can and do still work together. Only a few accounts actively poke the anarchists.
There is something so on point about this. Mostly the fact that the goofs couldn’t spell believing.
What are anarchists spreading/believing that put them on the same plane as liberals?
Im aware it’s a stereotype and there’s definitely cool anarchists that don’t, but especially believing various lies about AES (China, UdSSR, DPRK, etc.)
Ahhh, fair enough. I think it’s rich criticizing these places when they don’t live somewhere that’s “better” in whatever way they think it is. The whole world is fucked. We need to rebuild from the ground up. I think about things practically. Ideally, an anarchist future sounds great, but we cannot implement that without at the minimum instilling socialism, evolving to communism, and then many generations down the line if things can go well, then achieve anarchy. Jumping the gun would lead to so many issues, especially from the libertarian crowd. They are basically liberals with a desire to remove safety nets altogether. Which is fucked. And we all know that the way liberals operate is just like Republicans, but virtue signal for the sake of profit rather than shoot themselves in the foot by being open about their true intentions or internal beliefs (racism, sexism, etc).
A good old fashioned fumbling self-own, just like reddit used to make :)
