I guess that they think that anarchy will just happen overnight, without any loss of infrastructure and workers will take over factories and hospitals autonomously and everything will be more or less as now, but free from oppression etc

It definitely is when there is someone with you who wants it 😄

But I did not have that opportunity in a very long time

same, haven't met an anarchist ever since I left high school

I put it down among all the other ideologies that only work when you are 15 and "seem cool"

shame these seem to be lasting with people well into adulthood nowadays

Some war would quickly fix that

hard times make strong men, ... and all that

when they don't have problems in their life, they'd rather create them

Makes people grateful for what they have when they realize how quickly life can be extinguished

Dragon, I don't think that problem with anarchists is very new

Sounds like the description of Twitter

Or social media in general lol

Which is my main source of left-wing lunacy

I once read about pre-civil war Spain and it seems that they were busy assassinating important folks back then

Not even communists (though these would become friends later on), just "anarchists"

I would imagine that's a common first step, if not a required one. How else will you forcibly remove people from power without bloodshed?

Doesn't matter how big of guns you have

A massive horde will typically win against those with power

good luck telling people that they don't deserve to things they've earned over the course of their lives and try to take them without force

just try to convince the majority that anarchism the way to go

good luck with that...

that's probably why guilt is such a common weapon these days, demoralise people into thinking they need to give things up to repent for their crimes imagined up by others

Even if you have loads of shit governments for centuries like the Germans, anarchism never really gains major traction

The "Gibs more" or "Gibs me that" mentality

I enjoy endlessly how some anarchists and communists (henceforth, "commies") think that the workers are with them, then finding out that they really are not and after that changing the terms that "workers" is basically anyone who has a useless university degree and agree with them on everything

hence why gender studies became a thing ^^^

It's also a dead end degree lol

that's what makes it amusing, the willful blindness that they wouldn't be the first enemy of the workers in their supposed communist utopia

Hey

Keep it down

What?

Onto the topic of college

What's the say on that

I just recently got into university

but most folks seem to be anti-communist here

I'm in my last year of my bachelor degree in game art

it's a business focused Uni 😄

That's probably why then lol

we got a good mix of feminism and people who hate their guts

At this stage I don't think I'd want to go to uni, feels like you have to be more careful than ever picking one without a crazy population
