True, but is the A for anarchists? Anarchists are not left.
Edit: oh, I'm on .ml. I didn't know yous had a thing going for anarchism as well, now I know.
Anarchists are left. Anything to the left of capitalism is left. Anarchists want to get rid of capitalism.
Could you elaborate? My understanding of anarchism is the goal of eliminating government. That won't eliminate an economic system that originated organically.
Anarchists are usually leftists... though not all of them are, some can be quite selfish
I think it's a beautiful ideology, but one that can't really stand up to imperialistic powers in the real world
Which is why I am communist and not anarchist. To fight capitalism one must organize much more than anarchy movements could .
Yep. I love the idea of anarchism but the reality is power comes from the barrel of a gun and without a strong unified government of the proletariat, the capitalists will eat you.
Exactly
