Hey all, I’m hoping this is the right comm for this kind of post. I’m really interested what brought my fellow lemmings to anarchism (or just radical politics in general). Was is a youtube video? A book? A conversation IRL or on the internet? For me personally it was a friend IRL who introduced me to an local anarchist collective.
Punk music, generally. But my first introduction to the word was in a 6th grade social studies class where they discussed different forms of government, and the oversimplified idea given to us at that point was appealing on some level. As I’ve grown it just seems to fit my own ideology and lifestyle more and more.
For disclosures sake: I’m 40 years old now and never read more than a paragraph of any theory related books, but would be interested in trying to learn more
