      Whether they’re all-in on China or think that Xi is the anti-Christ, the end result is exactly the same: absolutely nothing whatsoever. There isn’t a local left, much less a national left; certainly there isn’t anything that anybody could seriously call an international movement. The opinions of random westerners mean absolutely nothing to the CCP. Fixating on what we have zero influence over is wholly unproductive.

      Maybe in 20 years we’ll have cobbled together a movement that Beijing thinks is even worth offering a nod to, but right now we’re a bit too irrelevant to worry about our place on the global stage.

      my point is that it doesn’t matter at all
      we are barely past the starting gun of communism
      the generations before us (in the west) got complacent and dropped the fucking ball
      at this moment, having anarchists as allies can only benefit the working class, they have better support networks, making a real difference to people’s lives on the ground
      we can deal with our differences when we aren’t completely outnumbered and outgunned by the overt fascists who are trying to kill us, and the movement dead
      and make no mistake, i will probably be in my sixties by the time that fucking happens, and you in your forties

          I dunno I think dismissively quoting 19th century political philosophical divisions in response to someone pointing to the importance of real-world on the ground mass organizing is firmly in the realm of idealism.

          The science of revolution requires a grounding in the conditions of the working class and an aptitude for organizing a mass base. Many anarchists are far ahead of many Western MLs in this respect, as being a Western ML is unfortunately often treated more like an identity or club rather than an activity or life dedication or science.
