that's the tragedy of Catalunya. on the civil war between Republican Catalunya and Fascist Spain, Catalunya had a minicivil war between the communists and anarchists.
they are a bit ideologically incompatible. both hate capitalism, so it makes sense that they are friends now, but one intendeds to replace capitalism with a proletariat state, and the other consideres states as intrinsically evil, regardless of capitalism.
I'll miss all my commie friends once the revolution comes π
I mean, you could just fuck off into the woods and visit when you want to, real commies won't hunt you. I think it's legit for people to want to live collectively under a state, and I think it's legit for people to want to be completely independent. Without the never ending appetite of capitalism, I think the two could coexist.
interesting, the revolution isn't here and yet you preemptively exiled me from my community.
I think you have an ideological misconception.
anarchy isn't individualism. it is the opposite of individual independence. it's based on mutual aid, we help each other in a collective without a state that can legally kidnap, imprison, kill you whenever it deems convenient and will lash out at anything that will threaten the state.
it's the needless power structures that are intrinsically evil, racism, capitalism, sexism, state/people.
Itβs not inevitable, after all we want the same end result - a classless, stateless, moneyless society.
If it has truly gotten to the point where every last billionaire is gone, then I would argue that is pretty good evidence for the end of the hegemony of capital. Iβm not sure that the material conditions of a world like that would require a dictatorship of the proletariat, and much more alignment with anarchists could be reached.
Of course, if we are talking about a more realistic scenario like a revolution in a single nation, then absolutely a central state is required to protect the revolution from reactionaries.
Chiapas did quite well, but they were too small to stand a chance, and Rojava is still going strong (as far as I'm aware, western media is intentionally hiding all news from Rojava), even though they are at war with a NATO state.
Someone once calculated that Smaug, the greedy evil dragon from the Hobbit, has horded gold worth roughly $70 billion. Not even in the top 20 of rich people today.
I think that Smaug deserved to get impaled with an arrow and bleed to death.

it's just sad, that the moment we hang the last billionaire, us commies and anarchist will immediately become enemies. π

Fun Lord of the Rings fact:
Someone once calculated that Smaug, the greedy evil dragon from the Hobbit, has horded gold worth roughly $70 billion. Not even in the top 20 of rich people today.
