I don’t see any overlap between anarchism and fascism (they are basically opposite)!so I can’t understand why anyone who calls themselves such would make such an alliance. Even the so-called anarcho-capitalists often make the mistake of believing they can achieve freedom by aligning with the right, but that’s immensely foolish. I assume they either know that what they’re working towards is neofeudalism or they don’t know what feudalism is because that is the logical endpoint of their ideology, and thus they are not anarchists. It’s a complex spectrum. I’m trying to find the time and energy to write about market socialism again. I have a whole article outlined just sitting in the wings.

Yea no more anarchists aligning with fascists against the communists bc that did not work out at all in our favor!

This is something I debate internally constantly. I am not in favour of a vanguard party, nor of undemocraticly formed and unaccountable (from the bottom) administration groups. 

That said, I do feel like unless the major powers (especially the US) don’t  have a socialist revolution first, then any country who does will be demolished because it will have no tools to fight back (military, diplomacy, trade relations) that a more centralized entity can employ with greater agility.

So where I always land is that I’m a libertarian socialist (or anarchosocialist) who will work towards bottom up solutions but I will work with and support a Marxist-Lenninist revolution if one comes.

I don’t much care for traditional politics and think we’re too outflanked and dependent on centralized monopolies (feudal lords) for our necessities that it’s irrelevant what crumbs we ask for…

Gotta be prefiguratively and decentrally strong af!

Yeah, totally. I completely identify with anarchist thinkers like Kropotkin, but the self-labelled anarchists I've met irl are pretentious holier-than-thou posers that love discussing theory with very little impact on the world.

Agreed, I think anarchists can be a bit too principled at the sacrifice/expense of strategy/tact in obtaining + dissolving/decentralizing power

Depends on whether we're discussing strategy or end goal.

While the end goal should definitely be a classless, thus also stateless (anarchist) society, the means for getting there should not exclude accessing the state for its dissolution.

Power should be descentralized, but for getting there you need to be powerful.
