    I have yet to see the anarchists over here set up more than a dozen well run, free healthcare clinics or effectively lowering cost of living or protesting for keeping public transport lines open etc.

    It’s cool that they run a soup kitchen and have the occasional burning of things ritual but it’s the tankies getting shit done.

        Well that’s good then innit

        I wasn’t saying anarchists don’t do anything over here, they do. But it has become a bit of a meme in leftist circles that the anarchist solution to problems either boils down to ‘soup kitchen’ or ‘punch the baddies in the face’ without eye for educating and mobilizing the working class. And while I appreciate their time and effort and their support to whatever we are doing, punching a random nazi politician or burning the umpteenth cop car is not going to get the masses in movement unfortunately. So please anarchist friends, do help us with your tactics but let us do our things as well lol.
