I’ve known and worked with many anarchists whose relationships I value, but I’ve noticed that self-identified anarchists are just as likely to be reactionaries as they are to be left wing in any sense. Not so much for anarchists involved in organizing, but when I meet an anarchist it’s always a yellow flag for me until I get to know them a bit. It seems in America it’s a term used by politically unsophisticated people obsessed with lifestyle politics more than by libertarian socialists.
