Growing an Anarchist Movement

[invisibleplanet]

Could I get you a wider broom to allow for more efficient future sweeping statements?

Radical's a bit of a relative term anyway

 

[Shevek]

wonders what to do

 

[invisibleplanet]

thanks spion but I dont much like the idea of a commune. I prefer to live in my flat

You can be part of a commune yet still live in your own flat.

i prefer high tech cyberpunk anarchism where we take over the world using high technology not living in filthy communes.

 

[Raw SslaC]

i dunno what to do. It would constitute quite a break if I was to go off and do my own thing.

As anarchists proposed a much larger break, i.e. world wide social revolution, I think you will need to start somewhere.

Can't wait for butchersapron to arrive.
He's VERY good on this sort of thing.

Stop paying your membership fee to the lib dems would be a start i guess?

He knows anarchist social science better than most around here, with or without beer, although his spelling is better without the beer

lolololol. No seriously I need to sort myself out and work out what I am going to do. I cant sit on the fence forever. I need to make a commitment to something and start doing something active, concrete, sustained.

 

[invisibleplanet]

I think you missed the part where I said it is irrelevant what your politics are - get out into the community (kommune), find out together what is needed, and make a difference. Or is the idea of working with other people too filthy for you?

I don't quite get what this discussion is all about.....A lib dem trying to bring down the system with help from cyberspace without upsetting the spouse? Is this what the revolution has come to??

What campaigns, strikes etc exist locally to you right now that you feel strongly about? Going along and getting involved is the best way to meet possible like minded (and not so like minded, it has to be said) people

Teehee, well summed up

You'll fit in well 'round 'ere

 

[sim667]

Im still trying to work out how to determine my own political biased..... i have views and such like but i dont know what parties my views lean towards

can urban help determine my political bias too?

 

[Dillinger4]

This thread is fucking well lol

A true Chomsky-loving @narchist wouldn't want to fit in with you lot!

The communes will be very clean. And if your comrades want, you don't even have to call it a commune. You can call it Bertrand. Or Darren.

You do seem a little foggy on the basic concepts, mind. Community autonomy doesn't anywhere imply everyone sleeping round an open fire in a big yurt. (Although, each to their own).

 

[Balbi]

Libertie. Egalitie. Broadband!

 

[Spion]

Good thread.

I hope we get more of these.

Yeah, Anarchists can be as sectarian as the next Trot.

It doesn't?
That's me outta here

It doesn't imply not, either.

Me too! Wanna start a true anarchist commune round a camp fire somewhere in the wilds of Leicestershire, invisibleplanet? With Chomsky as compulsary bed-time literature??

Sure, littleseb, but first we have to crash the next Lib Dem conference and rescue Shevek - it'll be wild! Who's in?

The next conference is in sunny Bournemouth but I am not going due to lack of funds. Maybe you can rescue me from home?

 

[Shevek]

how many other people on here are anarchists and what flavour of @narchism do you subscribe to?
