having done extensive on the ground work, irl anarchists are nothing like internet anarchists in my experience
the worst you will get as an ML is a snide comment or a weird look, which if that bothers you, you are not suited to organizing
and frankly "supporting" china has no material impact whatsoever, and implies a very "posting is praxis" western marxist worldview
my point is that it doesn't matter at all
we are barely past the starting gun of communism
the generations before us (in the west) got complacent and dropped the fucking ball
at this moment, having anarchists as allies can only benefit the working class, they have better support networks, making a real difference to people's lives on the ground
we can deal with our differences when we aren't completely outnumbered and outgunned by the overt fascists who are trying to kill us, and the movement dead
and make no mistake, i will probably be in my sixties by the time that fucking happens, and you in your forties
i'm 32 years old and if you're older than me and hold to this ridiculous fucking idea then you are useless to us
we are running out of fucking time
this isn't a fucking game, this is people's fucking lives
