If you don’t already know, I’m an anarcho-syndicalist and I’m tired of people thinking that means I’m some authoritarian commie pretending to be leftist. I don’t bootlick party lines or worship dead strongmen. Centralized power rots no matter what color the flag is.

Hear me out, I’ve read actual labor history, I know what labor power means. We build our politics on horizontal organizing and direct action, not on some bureaucrat ordering purges in the name of the people. Real socialism comes from below, not from a vanguard bootlicking org.

You cannot even compare us. You think we’re the same thing because propaganda taught you to lump everything anti-capitalist together. The West fears revolt, so it rewrote every radical idea to look like another dictatorship, and you bought it.
