This post specifically posits the opposite viewpoint tho. That anarchism exists to spin chaos for the proletariat so that the bourgeois class can deepen their depravity and inequality. Just more leftist purity tests from jank.
Marx was also writing based on observing specific conditions in specific places 150 years ago. The point of Marxism is that it’s a way to coherently frame the things you’re currently observing as intersectionally as possible and test them against prior studies while checking your own personal biases. Most of my organising as a Marxist is in anarchist or democratic socialist orgs because they’re easier to start in the surveillance state that developed after Marx said this. They just don’t scale up as easily as an ML org like PSL, which maintains the same message with discipline in cities across the US. That higher level of organisation is equally important to anarchism’s ease with local organisation, more secure and more able to centralise and use resources.
Thats cool that was the point of Marx. What is the point of Jank posting this right here, right now? Does it help? Does it enlighten leftists? Or unify us in any way? Or is this just derisive because it sounds like what Marx is referring to as anarchist is what we call anarchic capitalists today.
