Discourse around the prairieland trial

The premier philosopher of anarchism, Bakunin, was an obese pedophile antisemite. It’s an infantile, adventurist, reactionary movement that would gladly throw the both of us under the bus if it came down to the wire

Tldr: one of the people arrested in prairieland was a trans woman who drove them there, was arrested, sent to a male prison, deprived of all her medication, was threatened with 50 years prison time, and she cracked and told them borderline worthless info. Now a bunch of fucking idiots who do nothing but post on twitter.com instead of doing mutual aid or anything worthwhile are calling her a snitch and downplaying what happened to her

And then this comrade ⬆️ is projecting that onto anarchists as a group so she can win internet points against her literal allies in the work of liberation

Oh, that’s fucked. Seems fairly contradictory to be an anarchist and then downplay systemic violence in the prison system

It reads to me as more of talking about specific people/a specific kind of person

So let me get this straight, because Bakunin was a piece of shit nobody should be an anarchist? Nevermind the fact that anarchism both in name and substance predates Bakunin? Catch me missing that.

Most “anarchists” on the internet are just edgelords with utterly incoherent beliefs. I’ve known good anarchists irl who actually do the work, but they ain’t on Twitter. Twitter Anarchism is just juvenile contrarianism to anything an ML says online, so if a “tankie” says prison rape is bad, then they HAVE TO defend prison rape as part of their Twitter Anarchist Duty lmao

I’ve been called a tankie while I still identified as an anarchist (literally for saying “China has cone some good things for housing and pulling people out of poverty) so this whole thing is just kinda ridiculous to me

I mean tankie is 100% a completely meaningless term and I immediately think less of anyone who uses it unironically

Fair, in most instances “tankie” translates to “I’m a liberal and your leftism scares me”

Allies my ass, they lied to her and threw her under the bus. When’s the last time anarchists did anything productive towards revolution? Occupy was an objective failure, and had no lasting influence on culture. Anarchists never challenged US hegemony over the globe but the USSR did. Unorganized sporadic acts of violence are untenable.

People will call you a tankie if you make even the slightest agreement with china (which is itself a traditionalist hell culturally, and has abandoned any principle of supporting revolution worldwide like Mao would’ve wanted).
