Nice to see you on anarchist.nexus Sunshine :)

I wonder if there’s anything like this in Switzerland/Austria/France

Ratskie Narodi?

My cyrilic is very rusty

You double posted in same community I think.

I’m gonna try explain why it feels like to me you’re kind of missing the point.

Like we can think breaking laws in general is good because it makes these useless laws harder to enforce if a lot of people break them. Ie. its a form of resistance against the state.

But also be staunchly against terrible things like random killings and sexual assault.

One doesn’t entail the other.

But that’s not the law illegalism recommends you to break. This is kinda a strawman.

The Anarchist code of conduct, which the comm is based upon does not encourage random murders lol.

This pic from the comm might help explain:

I think this all very much depends on how exactly you define a state.

But I’d push back on the idea anarchist self organisation takes more effort than states. I don’t think it does. Just that the effort used to uphold states has been formalised and territorialised as “jobs” and sometimes just “culture”.

I never mentioned the Non agression pact. Simply that Stalin and Hitler cooperated in an invasion of Poland. I don’t think that’s deniable.

Also, I’m not sure I’m going to take Cowbee’s take seriously when they frame Putin’s invasion of Ukraine as self defence. And who calls modern CCP controlled China “Democratic”.

I don’t think that’s a good reason to like Stalin.

You could say something similar about Churchill vis à vis Nazis. Doesn’t change the fact he was a cunt.

Plus Stalin literally cooperated with Hitler to invade Poland, commiting atrocities in the process. So while I appreciate that the USSR is one of the, if not the, major reasons the Nazis fell, I don’t see it as out of good faith.

Trotsky. The guy who argued the Soviet Union was too authoritarian and bureaucratic. And was serving an unaccountable elite instead of the workers. Arguably much closer to the spirit of Marx than Stalin. Is the one everyone hates?

This meme is kinda tankie brained.

Yeah this sounds more like Zižek

The argentine government could focus their money on those struggling in poverty isntead of being mafia for capital.

Yo when’s registration opening. I’d love to join the instance :)

It was also pretty symbolically used to chop the head off of dear old Louis XVI and his wife (the royals), and end the Royal order in France. (Not that what came after was that much better, but the symbolism stands more if u look at it that way).

Interesting. I think this it’s going down piece might be a good companion to the Jacobin perspective.

Incroyable 🫡.

Your graphic design efforts are appreciated.

The EU is a neoliberal technocracy with social democratic aesthetics.

It literally enforces capitalism, austerity (and thereby cuts of welfare).
