But lets be honest, the magnitude of bad anarchist takes can’t all be coming from

:yea: I got banned from almost every anarchist space just for getting annoyed at obvious fed posting. And everyone in the vaguely left subs just thinks I’m a tankie. Like jesus christ motherfuckers touch grass and do some organizing, anarchist praxis is the most accessible form of praxis one can do in the US and in the short term the most necessary.

At least I’ve been working on dragging r/ENLIGHTENEDCENTRISM in a better direction

I feel like I have to tread more lightly in Antiwork but I’m trying to bring folks around to reading some good debrainworming stuff like Black Shirts and Reds where I can.

I’m pretty sure any anarchist that does direct action is too busy doing that to, idk, call anyone who doesn’t buy the bullshit astroturfed Cuba protests a tankie on Twitter all day.

Yep the literal anarchist crust punk kids that went and fought with cops for fucking up the FNB free kitchen in my area had no clue that was even happening. When I told some of them none of them were like “well you know the cuban government is authoritarian too” they were just as pissed as any of us about the US starving them with sanctions and inciting violence.

Yesterday I had to explain to one such anarchist that yes, actually, Cuba good even if you’re an anarchist and not an ML, and posting images of Xi as Winnie the pooh is in fact, racist.

For real. I’m an ML and have been doing most of my IRL organizing with anarchists, both because they’re just the people who are around in my area and because of what you say- their praxis is the praxis our community needs right now.

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
