I see

unfortunately anarchism differs from most ideologies in that it doesn't use violence as enforcement

only as self defense

which means that to get to anarchism, you have to have people willing to opt into it

rather than a violent takeover

Also how would you guys agree on which kind of anarchism to use? since you said you all have different views of anarchism

generally speaking, anarchism allows people to live how they please, provided you don't harm others

so in practice there will realistically be a variety of different optional structures people use

but the main guiding factor that will be followed is whatever means were used to arrive at anarchism

so in the model I support, it'd be a gradual reduction of reliance on government and capitalism

and a switch to the system I talk about and advocate for

the model I support is generally more resiliant to attacks and attempts at takedowns as well

so if you take down only a part, the rest will work around that automatically due to how it's structured

so to take down an anarchist society that I describe, you'd have to take down the whole thing at once

since it wouldn't be centralized

So how do you plan on convincing people to follow anarchism?

a better way of living

people already stray towards anarchism when capitalist systems fail

if they can't afford food they "steal". instead of buying tv and movies and music they just pirate them

if they can't afford a home they squat

I see

poor people, on average, are much more supportive of leftist resource distribution, which can really help facilitate anarchism

this is why anarchists and communists typically work together

so while an anarchist is *opposed* to a central authority providing healthcare for all, we see it as superior because it's a way of opting out of the capitalist model of buying healthcare

So what if both anarchists and communists rose to power worldwide together?

that's the other big struggle within anarchist politics

how would it be possible to defend from the communists?

it's happened a few times now

where both work together to achieve an egalitarian society

and then the communists afterwards oppress anarchists to push their model of government

usually communism at that point then turns into a dictatorship, is corrupted, and ends up with capitalism again

So this happened in soviet russia?

this is why the "overthrowing the state alongside anarchists" never works

right

you can see it wherever communists start getting power

anarchists support because the progress is beneficial to us

and then communists fuck everyone over once in power

this is why I'm supportive of "weening off" the reliance of state+capitalism

Also, how would you explain the opposing of the leftist ideologies in Russia nowadays?

rather than trying to overpower and overthrow it from the inside

right so in russia what had happened was that communists got into power
