Maybe as an experiment, let's try to understand each other's positions ITT and not have the same boring old arguments (because they're boring).
Edit - nice discussion everyone, thanks <3. I'm seeing a lot of responses from ML and not many from anarchists, but maybe I'm the only anarchist on this site lol

I sometimes wonder if this is partly because the US government invested so many resources over so many decades into domestic anti-communism efforts, rather than anti-anarchism efforts. Like, I've noticed in discussions with "normal" people in the US that in many cases they'll be surprisingly receptive to anarchist ideas, but will immediately shut down when the scary word "communism" comes up.

"the great work is to get as many people through this mess as possible. for now i think that means mutual aid, local organizing, and resisting state authority. if nothing else we’re all in this together"
Amen, comrade.
