It's annoying being an anarchist on lemmy
You call out Russia or China, MLs think if they regurgitate "read theory" that solves my issues with them.
You call out American liberals and how they aid fascists, you're calling a secret Trump supporter.
You say that genocide is an evil action, liberals and Tankies will defend their favorite country's actions because you're a shill for the enemy if you do.
You say America did something kinda good, you're somehow a neolib in disguise. You lightly praise the USSR, you're Stalin's second cousin as an AI.
I just don't want people harmed by a government force. Fuck me, I guess? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills for applying the same morals to every politician and country, even ones I live in or slightly like.
Edit: If someone said it was annoying being an leftist and a bunch of liberals came in exusing their actions and doubling down, everyone would be singing a different tune. Just kinda fascinating.

government
You're not the right kind of anarchist
For using the word government??? What kind of crazy gatekeeping is this?
Good gatekeeping.
Can you explain? I don't understand what's happening here
Gatekeeping.
Right, I suppose if you explained then it wouldn't be gatekeeping.
No, im just gatekeeping the gatekeeping community. We love gates
You’re not the right kind of anarchist
I think doing this is unkind and wasting a chance to educate a (potential) companion.
@OP When you use "goverment" instead of state, some people get reminded of american right wingers and right-wing libertarians which use that word most often in the public discourse. Most anarchist use different vocabulary like "state" because its clearer defined and because it is based on anarchist theory that goes back hundreds of years. Personally I think its pretty clear what you are talking about in that sentence and its unfair to call you "not the right kind of anarchist" because of that.
