I see you woke up today and chose violence

I mean... okay. You're baiting tankies - as one does.

But looking at this I have to note that I wish anarchists wouldn't simply remember anarchist Catalonia and anarchist Ukraine only when arguing with liberals and tankies, but also cast a critical eye on these doomed experiments - because, spoiler alert, the anarchists involved also made some serious mistakes that one can't actually blame on tankies, liberals and fascists.

And I don't see anarchists doing that.

You gotta admit, it is a bit funny, that the Korean Anarchist commune fell apart when they lost their leader.

I'm not too familiar with the Korean or Greek ones, Russia and mexico are pretty spot on but idr Zapata's exact politics, I get the revolutionaries mixed up but I think he was kind of a mess?

The Spanish context might've been unwinnable even if Stalin had cooperated fully. Russia was kind of a shit show as far as military and industry, and couldn't handle all of Germany+Italy's direct aid from next door while navigating all of it through hostile liberal states. Maybe they could have if they hadn't spent all their time doing internal purges and being run by a dipshit gangster, but that's being generally internally shitty, not being a bad ally.

Like they did fuck it up, sending commissars and shit, but I'm not sure it made the difference.

Wikipedia says Shinmin commune leader was killed by Korean communists not Chinese. Also, imperialist Japan did invade Manchuria shortly afterwards so who can say what really ended it.

i'm going to need all the anarchists to stop applying historical wrongs of communists to the modern movement of leftism in the Western world lol

this is petty infighting and pointless. we have the internet and widespread sharing of culture. we are able to educate ourselves and learn more about one another and ideological positions. there is so much uniting anarchists and communists it's extremely pathetic to point out how 145 years ago a bunch of commies killed anarchists.

even as recent as 2000

that was 26 years ago... lol. like, look. we aren't the same people as a species. we know more, we've experienced more. i don't know a single communist or anarchist who hate each other. i swear to god this is mostly online dumb shit.
