@mook Anarchists are too amenable to market propaganda (see: mutualism, market anarchism, the talking point that "capitalism != Markets")USAian Maoists are 99% of the time just irritating, hypocritical, and insular fanatics.

@mook anarchists would be 1000% fine if they understood the basic concept of historical materialism instead of just going off vibes.

@mook Maoism in the United States attracts young, disillusioned white liberals who want to cosplay as revolutionaries. At least, if the Internet is to be believed.

@burnoutqueen@todon.nl it's more a certain type of nihilist individualist anarchism, this actually has a long history, another argument i've heard elsewhere is that revolutions inevitably lead to the construction of new regimes, and this has often been the case, but it's a stretch to say it is always so, A major theory on the fall of the Mayan city states is that the people revolted against their god kinds, abandoned the cities are re-established agarian communalism. And anarchists don't just want any revolution but a social revolution which overturns all existing hierarchies. Something unprecedented. Renzo Novatore had a refreshing take on this: Now since dictatorship will be – alas! – inevitable in the somber global revolution that sends its bleak glow from the east over our black cowardice, the ultimate task of we anarchist individualists will be that of blowing up the final ark with bomb explosions and the final dictator with Browning shots. The new society established, we will return to its margins to live our lives dangerously as noble criminals and audacious sinners! Because the anarchist individualist still means eternal renewal, in the field of art, thought, and action. https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/renzo-novatore-anarchist-individualism-in-the-social-revolutionRenzo died in a shootout with the fascists
