In one sense I agree with you and I’m pretty left unity gang generally. But imperialist discourse is so fucking extreme and the pandemic has made the necessity of a disciplined state command economy so vital I think that anarchism is really being shown up for a lot of its deficiencies at the moment

"The Communists are distinguished from the other working-class parties by this only:
-
In the national struggles of the proletarians of the different countries, they point out and bring to the front the common interests of the entire proletariat, independently of all nationality
-
In the various stages of development which the struggle of the working class against the bourgeoisie has to pass through, they always and everywhere represent the interests of the movement as a whole."

I’m not an anarchist myself, I’m more of a Demosc (I’m heavily electoralist for personal reasons) with Maoist influences (my theory itself is largely maoist-derived) So I’m not a fan of an echo chamber for either MLs or anarchists.
Yeah for real, and it’s almost always angry tankies. Can we have some left unity?
