China once had a massive anarchist movement in the pre-Mao years. Anarcho-Dictator China has neoliberals and neocons all-a-tizzy about various dangers allegedly posed by a third world country on the other side of the planet.

I’ve never been a fan of this guy, but I thought the charges that were put on him sounded like overkill. Apparently, the judge agreed. A thought: We need an “Anarchist Civil Liberties Union,” similar to the American Civil Liberties Union, but which defends all enemies of the […]

It seems that the idea of “start-up societies” is growing in popularity throughout a range of political tendencies. Is this the wave of the future?
Todd Lewis and I analyze the failure the anarchist, libertarian and altright movements in the USA to achieve anything other than fringe marginal status.
