Just as Sanderites have watered down the meaning of “socialism”, so too have anarchists watered down the meaning of “communism” with this silliness. I almost appreciate the higher level of honesty from “post-leftists” or “anarcho-syndicalists”, at least they’re less likely to actually say “that wasn’t reaaaal communism, real communism is when bandit warlords raze villages and commit pogroms”.
