There ARE good critiques of anarchism. They just very rarely come from Marxists, Leninists, Maoists, or other Lassaleans. Instead, they come from other anarchists with an ax to grind.

@abolisyonista@ni.hil.ist despite my many issues with varying kinds of anarchism, the thing that has always prevented me from going marxist is sheer intellectual lazyness and dishonestly when criticizing their rivals on the left, especially anarchists, which in itself calls into questions their claim of theoretical rigour, in my experienced the best marxist theory tends to come from anarchists, or at least marxists who operate outside of these old isms, like Immanuel Wallerstein or CLR James

If you actually want unending critique of everything your going to have to find an egoist primitivist -

Nearly every trans woman i know is an egoist primitivist and quite a few of them are people of color, most including me are disabled. There are more "abusers" that are green anarchists and egoists? What does an "abuser" look like? From where im sitting as a transfem, i would say that feminist and queer anarchist spaces are abuser protection spaces because of their violently bioessentialist view of rape, sexual assault, abuse, and violence more generally; in a way that is systemic goes far far beyond anything ive seen outside of an explicitly masculinist space. Are you repeating neo-green-scare andrew ried ross/theo slade fbi propaganda? -

Dgr is still a.thing? Really?I dont fuck with social ecologists because here theyre basically undercover liberal technofascists with extra steps who are deeply in bed with recuperative apparatuses. Social ecology in america has been extremely anti-anarchist and huge perpetuaters of green-scare rhetoric as a way to try to slander their ideological oponents (anarchists) and draw power from their movements
