    anarchists do have rules, they just don’t have hierarchies. the idea that anarchism is a free-for-all, do whatever you want ideology is capitalist propaganda.

    there are many “anarchisms” and some actually refuse rules.

    some are clearly antisocial and nihilistic. That doesn’t make it less anarchist.

      Sure, people like ancaps exist. And there’s naturally no authority on what anarchism is. But you won’t find many leftists, anarchists or otherwise, who will associate themselves with people like that.

      You can scream to the heavens that you’re an anarchist all you want, but you can’t make people accept that or humor you by also calling you one.

        You can scream to the heavens that you’re an anarchist all you want, but you can’t make people accept that or humor you by also calling you one.

        that’s a strange occupation, to care about people calling you anarchist or not.

        i know that nowadays people are more interested in what they’re called, appropriated identities, labels and what not, but you really think that those unfrequentables will care about what you call them?
