I’ve had the opposite experience in my local organising. I’m an ML, but my local “ML” orgs are all socdem libs or ultras who spend more time complaining about China than they do actually organising. Only our local anarchists actually do shit, so even if I disagree with them politically, they at least do something. Plus they’re generally more amicable to China than our supposed “MLs”, not quite on Nakoichi’s level unfortunately, but at least they are pro-poverty alleviation and pro-green energy.
I can get that. Organizing is different in every city for sure. We have our socdem whiner camp who hates any existing socialism and a fuck ton of post-left nerds who are like Trots but instead draft doomerpill essays on local political pages instead of their own newsletters. Of course, there’s never a push-back against any actual right-wing groups or the white shirt goobers carrying swastikas.
Nakoichi seems fine. I agree with them; I’ve done volunteer work with anarchists and they can be great and solidarity is absolutely necessary. For some reason though, them and the post-left nerds are extremely hostile towards A.E.S; as I shown in the post. Common sentiment here, for some reason. You try leveling with some on it and it snaps them right back into the U.S dept programming.
I’ve been hostile in the past; but this was a genuine attempt at discussion with someone, not a bait or incitement. For example, one of them was cracking jokes about “just wait till you accuse us anarchists of doing something actually cool, shitlib” and threatening me.
Why the fuck don’t they do something against the goobers waving swastikas on fucking Broadway instead of threatening other leftists trying to organize?! I’d love to get some people together and make a damn statement but no, gotta make sure the tankies knows his place!
It does feel hopeless sometimes, but I’d rather eat a leadpill at the wall than a pathetic fucking doomerpill.
