Anarcho-Communism Explained

If you put anarcho in front of your political ideology then a rock is smarter than you.

Absolutely! I mean to be fair I used to be an anarchist... when I was 13 and writing the anarchist A in a circle on my notebooks to be edgy 😆 🤣 😂

No government but please pay off my student loans!

Exactly!!!! Excellent meme. anarcho-communists are who Stalin called "useful idiots".

I actually agree with this one. As an non-auth Leftist who supports individualism and an acceptable degree of government, I'm always confused when people call themselves Anarcho-Communists.

Yeah seems to me you're either an Anarchist or not. They don't really mesh well with others if anything maybe libertarians? I don't even try to label myself anymore I agree with some of a lot of things and disagree with a bit of everything. Some sort of moderate with a mix of right and left except crime I'm pretty right wing on.

I'm not an Anarchist but I think it has some merits.

I haven't studied political science in about 2 decades and when I did we didn't really delve into anarchism as a political ideology. From my extremely limited understanding it seems like libertarians but a few steps further. I can get behind a lot of libertarian ideas like basically leave me alone and let me do my thing. But at a certain point I'm a fan of organized society. I believe left to our own devices we will devolve into very violent and messy people. And in a state of Anarchy it will become the Walking Dead and the Negans of the world will rise to power. 6r7wju.jpg (click to show)

Do mean Right Libertarianism or Left Libertarianism?

*do you. Oops.

Now you're hitting above my pay grade I didn't realize there were left or right libertarians I thought they were just libertarians. Small government stay out of my business sorts who like guns weed DIY and prepping 😆

Well that is a thing that both Leftist and Rightist Libertarians share. The main differences are economics.

Did a rather quick read of right and left libertarianism on Wikipedia hardly an authority I'm sure but from my brief read looks like I would line up more with right libertarians than left. In theory maybe some of the left ideas are ok but in practice I think not. I believe in private property. No one should be able to just take my house away from me or walk on in and grab my TV. I have a strong distaste for what I believe anarchy means. Having worked with some of the worst criminals in the country from mass murderers to serial rapists to international gang members to child sex predators I tend to believe that people are more bad than good and in the abscence of strict rules the truly evil people will run amok and most people will be powerless to stop them. Hence Negan will rule the roost.

I think you mean personal property. Private property are private things people purchase off of the backs of others. Personal property is like your house or car. Nobody wants to get rid of personal property.

I fail to see the distinction? Like I didn't build my house or my car and it sits on land that I didn't tend to so wouldn't that mean it was purchased of the backs of others? I'm sure I'm misunderstanding something not trying to be antagonistic.

This puts it pretty well:

Weird I can't reply to your post below it's like it hit the end of the indents and said no more. Anyway I don't necessarily have a problem with this definition of private property either. Like if I design and build a widget and think man this widget is awesome so I build a few more and sell em to my neighbors and they tell me these widgets ate great can we get some more so I start a small assembly line in my basement but demand fir my widget goes up so I invest in a small production warehouse and hire a few staff and start pumping out more widgets. What's wrong with that?

dat booty tho
:3

Lol definitely 🤣
