The examples you listed are either small scale, unable to challenge the overarching capitalist system they exist in, or they no longer exist at all. If you consider that a success then I really don’t know what else to say.

How is that a straw man? It’s literally what you said.

It’s literally not what I said. What I actually said is that the nature of human relations did not fundamentally change in the past century, not that there haven’t been any changes. If you claim there has been some fundamental change in society, that would invalidate ML approach to organization, then do articulate what you think that was.

You’re gonna need some robo-wasps to keep the robo-bee population in check, it’s just how it works.

your attempt at an insult is as good as your object recognition

technically that’s a self-propelled artillery piece :)

Is your definition of success the establishment of a socialist state? Because anarchists are never going to do that.

My definition is the ability to defend the revolution and prevent a counter revolution. Marxists have been able to do this, but Anarchists have not. Incidentally, Zapatistas have actually started creating more central system now as well. Anarchists are free to demonstrate a working alternative to that though.

You don’t actually believe that basically nothing has changed since before the industrial revolution, do you? That seems intentionally obtuse.

You can’t actually address what I said without making a straw man can you?

Last I checked it was Ukraine that was kidnapping victims as western media openly reports. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/15/world/europe/ukraine-military-recruitment.html

Funny how you forgot about the foreign legion, and all the other military support that’s given. Very wow. Such powerful. NATO da best!

Sure, propaganda works as long as it has some material basis behind it. Whose propaganda it is has no impact on that.

yup https://www.cnn.com/2023/10/05/world/ukraine-money-military-aid-intl-dg

DPRK had more impact on the war than all of NATO combined. 🤣

👆 this is what happens when you uncritically guzzle propaganda for three years straight folks

All effective propaganda is based on truth.

cry harder

To date, nobody has shown a more effective approach to organizing that I’m aware of. All the successful movements follow roughly the same formula. The nature of society has not fundamentally changed in a century, so there’s no reason to think that methods of organization need to drastically change as well. Just look at MAS in Bolivia as a very recent example.

I’m not sure who these MLs are that you’re referring to, but the whole point of ML approach is to do all these things you’re talking about and couple that with education that provides a clear theoretical understanding of what the problems are, and what the solutions need to be. The whole contribution of Lenin to Marxism was to provide the structure for organizing a revolutionary movement.

Sure, in initial stages you’ll have many different orgs. This was the case during Russian revolution as well. However, eventually a single unified vanguard emerges and people get on the same page regarding how to move forward. There is no mechanism for creating a unified vanguard under anarchist approach where there is no central authority by design.
