    It would be silly of me to disavow prefiguration when my primary interaction with lemmy has been making it melt down with how vegan I am :p

    But I guess that’s where these navel-gazey comics and internet slapfights rub me the wrong way. To get where we need to be we don’t need a billion anarchists, we need a billion people willing to ignore lords and masters. Agitation focused on waking people up to the flaws in liberal capitalism rather than agitation that fragments the already prostrate left seems more useful to me.

      That’s the thing, I don’t think there’s anything to divide. Anarchists have not been united with MLs since the first international. We just have non-compatible praxis and our actions will lead to severely different results. I think it’s important to remind people of that now and then. I’m OK with working with MLs who follow anarchist praxis, but I also know we must remain vigilant for entryism and takeovers of our orgs.
