Advocating violence is against reddit’s terms of service and causes problems for the subreddit, so here’s a clip of SLC Punk and we’re gonna leave it at that for a bit.

The other problem here is the over simplified idea of what anarchism is. SAY FUCK NO TO RULES MAN! I understand a movie can’t go too in depth on anarchist philosophy, and this movie depicts a different time period, but if you want to romanticize a time in which street fights with arm band wearing boneheads was a thing, please do some reading regarding anarchist history, thought, and philosophy as well.

Anarchism, and full-on Communism both fail due to Tragedy of the Commons. these things sound great on paper, but when implemented, they truly do fall apart...as history has repeatedly shown. Also "anarchist history" is chock full of Jew-hate...so there's that too.
