Edit: This person is pretty young from what I’ve gathered after some reddit searching, so don’t like go whole-hog and be weirdos on reddit trying to troll them or anything. This is mostly about how fucking absurd the modding of that subreddit is
editedit: also Anarchism isn’t what I’m dunking here. However, post-left anything is not covered in the sectarian treaty

Either that or “I am a crypto-fasicst”
I went through a stage where I was worried that I was being reductionist calling everything I don’t like fascism but then I spent six hours reading about how the de-Nazification basically just didn’t happen in any meaningful way and now I’m right back on my bullshit.
Fascism wasn’t some new, emergent ideology of the 20th century. It was the solidification of the historical reactionary ethos and old world order. Everything looks fascist because fascism is the status quo defending itself from proletarian revolution.
Remember people: he does it for free
hey never know could be on :fedposting: payroll lol
I find it funny when an alleged anarchist says they don’t read theory because anarchist theory is incredibly in-depth
is this the one that went on tv?
Was trying to figure it out a bit ago, no is the answer.
I think the one that went on tv was /u/abolishwork

Chapo: “FUCK THAT GUY HE’S A FUCKING ASSHOLE I HATE HIM SO FUCKING MUCH I’M GOING TO PERSONALLY BOOT-BOX HIS FUCKING HEAD IN TO A NON-ORTHOGONAL SHAPE!”
Other Chapo: “Actually they’re Enby”
Chapo: “Oh shit sorry. They. I’M GOING TO PERSONALLY BOOT-BOX THEIR FUCKING HEAD IN TO A NON-ORTHOGONAL SHAPE! AND THEN I’M GONNA…”
We may be douchebags, but we have standards.
apparently there are a lot of “anarchist” weirdos running the show that hate “tankies.”
What the hell is post-left, anyway?
It was supposed to be people who got tired/burnt out from the constant shitstirring of leftist spaces who said fuck off i’m gonna get mine and turned their back on leftism.
Nowadays it’s what individualist anarchists call themselves so they don’t get associated with Stirner.
The new “I’m not like other leftists” meme for crypto-conservative libs
The motherfuckers aren’t even neo-Keynesians or MMTers or some shit, just a gaggle of Joe Rogan fans with big heads
Postleft anarchist? Does postleft have another meaning? I associate it almost exclusively with terminally online social reactionaries who might use some Marxist language, but I’ve never seen one identify with anarchism, or even pretend to
post-left doesn’t have a good singular definition because its adherents are all over the place. It’s been a term for at least 30 years now. The weird online reactionaries are just using the name because I’m pretty sure they were unaware post-left anarchists were a thing.
Their most common feature of post-leftists is they don’t really believe in class struggle or abolishing the current conditions. They don’t really believe in trying to change anything. They don’t even really believe in revolution. They believe a kind of utopian society is possible now by just disentangling from society entirely and forming your own little groups of like minded people. A lot of them think they’ve somehow unlocked a cheat code for politics that’s like “Yo what if you just stopped caring about who the fuckin president is and you stop going to work and just start a garden with some friends?”
It’s like if a bunch of people somehow internalized that one right wing argument that you can just be communist on your own plot of land and invent your own new society.
What is weird, people did try this, anarchists fairly explicitly in Europe (and enclaves still exist), but also hippies with communes in usa. How is it post, if it’s an autonomous sort of cell structure from below?

You may be putting more thought in to this than it’s adherents.
Here’s a well-known post-left polemic to give an idea of their beliefs https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/nadia-c-from-crimethinc-your-politics-are-boring-as-fuck
Every time I read this I either think this person is responding to someone incredibly specific or it’s just one of the more :jesse-wtf: things I’ve ever read, because almost none of the things the person is talking about resonate with me
I argued with this guy in the folk punk subreddit (he asked if folk punk had any post left associations) and I told him he was a lib larping as an anarchist like Vaush and he bitched out and deleted his post. How did he get to mod anything with that thin of a skin.
Lmfao to be fair I’d be pretty heated to be compared to Vaughn myself
