For legal reasons I must clarify this dunk is exclusively for this silly strain of online anarchism I see, where people don’t account for things like “supply chains” or “the murderous imperialists that will decend upon you the moment you become a threat to capitalism”.

    Most actual anarchists I’ve heard primarily believe in reducing reliance on capitalists and government by way of self and local community. That was my initial point.

      Anarchist thought is not merely about living in capitalism with anarchist principles, but transitioning to anarchist society.

        Anarchist society meaning one where people do not have to rely on capitalism or government. Why is gradually transitioning away from a ruling class of spoiled pedophiles a bad thing?

          It doesn’t just mean not needing to rely on them, it means the absence of them. Anarchist praxis is near exclusively revolutionary as a consequence.
