Seen it described as an anarchist variant critical of ancom & ansyn, rooted in egoism :stirner-cool: , individualism, and an overall rejection of organised long-term action.

personally I’m less fair and don’t even regard them as anarchist comrades, their entire ideology exists because of how unfortunately small and irrelevant North American leftist organizing has been since the 1980s. I see post-leftism as a kind of frustrated defeat. Taking their ball and going home. The adherents got bored of how little ground leftists have been able to take in America, so they decided they were at least free inside their own heads or free enough to write journal articles, which is tantamount to liberation in reality for them. “Just stop working and stop believing in gender. It’s easy.” So they’re post-left, they’re done with being leftists and want to skip to the point where we’re already liberated from everything.
