    An anticommunist breadtuber (but I repeat myself) debunks Engels 😂 Anarchism, unlike Marxism-Leninism, has yet to succeed in the real world for more than a few months. We will welcome anarchists’ lectures once they’ve proven their theory in praxis.

      Anything else than ad-hominem attacks and wishful thinking? Like actually engaging with the actual critique, tankie?

        Anarchism’s lack of success to date is historical fact, and I think that’s reason enough not to take the time to engage with some Burgerland anarchist’s video essay.

          Someone’s scared, I see.

          What a great theorist Engels must have been, given that you must find ridiculous excuses in order to avoid engaging critically with his work. /s

              So, tell me: in what way is necessity, the laws of physics or self-defense the same thing as a monopolization of decision making power?
