isn't that what you were just doing by claiming that I have "allegiances and actions" that leave much to be desired by "many other anarchists"
turnabout is fair play, and the extent of my 'actions' and 'allegiances' that you claim "anarchists" disapprove of is entirely limited to posts on the Internet and thoughts in my head.
even though you behaviour has been defacto in defense of “left unity” which many anarchists reject outright.
Just as "many" anarchists may hold your specific opinions, I know plenty from years or organizing who are not as dogmatic about being sectarian. As I said I prefer to work with people like that just as you seem to prefer spaces like the anticommunist snark comms
I brought it up because I've seen you engage in that in this very thread:
This just happened to be where I made my account 2 years ago, but clearly because of 'what .ml is" I can't be trusted. I will grant that you left yourself wiggle room by saying 'who knows', but you did say it was a valid assumption based on server.
I’m OK to take Diva’s word for it that she’s an anarchist, but of course her allegiances and actions leave much to be desired by other anarchists like me, so it’s not like I would want to be in the same affinity group or anything.
The feeling is mutual, I prefer to organize with anarchists who are more interested in the work at hand than with policing each other's opinions.
Follow up question: if that is bullying then what does that say about the people doing the ongoing red scare smear campaign based on what server people are on?
I came into a bait thread and made a joke about someone posting a bait thread and then telling pretty much everyone responding to the bait to disengage.
It's not that I have an issue with the rule, or intended to discourage people from using it, but because posting something incendiary and then dodging earnest responses to the bait with "disengage" is funny.
You wrote that explicitly to shame people from using a rule meant to cool down comment sections,
that's quite an accusation, I think it's reasonable to infer insincerity from my words, but shame? I think that's coming from somewhere else. I was mostly being glib responding to someone calling your post bait.
you wrote that to promote the “left unity” delusion by jumping on the attempted bullying bandwagon, so their assumptions are rational
that's an awful lot to read into one word. I'm pretty sure I was just making a joke, sorry that it was at your expense but I don't think that's bullying.
Follow up question: if that was bullying then what does that say about the people doing red scare smear campaigns based on what server people are on?
Soviet simping “anarchist”
Love the scare quotes, do you do any actual organizing as an anarchist or do you stick to posting?
I have plenty of criticisms of the USSR, I just don't care to participate in red scare circlejerks and that clearly rubs some people the wrong way.
on the .ml instance who posts like a hex
I've been here for years, it was literally my first instance and it was the most annoying Lemmy users constantly whining about hexbear that got me to start digging though their modlog and checking it out in the first place lmao.
quite a conclusion to jump from 'disengage' to that, plus I'm an anarchist
my kind? what is that supposed to be referring to?
you are a liberal who gives good anarchists a bad name by posting juvenile shit like this.
I've done quite a lot of in-person anarchist organizing over the years. The people who are always the loudest about being sectarian are often the ones who end up showing up the least in the end.
At this point I don't even bother getting into fights with them or trying to educate them. Combination of they tend to lose interest on their own anyways, and the task at hand is more important than trying to sway someone who thinks they know everything.
Other anarchists participating in anticommunist snark comms and towing the line on that front dissappoints and leaves me wary too, hence my mockery of this particular situation.
I pointed out that I'm actually active as an anarchist in the real world because people routinely claim that I am something else. If you read that as claiming superiority then I read your reading as projection.
