What a great strawman but what would you expect from him. I mean, sure there are individualistic anarchists and anti-associationists but most just want organizations without hierarchies like the anarchosyndicalists in Spain.
But I agree that anarchists are the real enemies, at least of Marxism Leninism, because they show a direct path to a stateless, classless, moneyless society without an authoritarian intermediate state. That’s why Stalin didn’t support the CNT in Spain. A free and socialist society that shows other ways to a socialist future? That would undermine his authority. A fascist regime at the other end of Europe? Far away and the smaller problem.
