Why Wokeism Will Rule the World

Probably the main reason that I frequently butt heads with the left-anarchists is that I do not necessarily believe that the universalization of “wokeism” is the priority issue or even something that needs to happen at all. I tend to view “woke anarchism” the same way I might […]

Why the Western Left is Weak on Imperialism

This essay by an an-com ideologue illustrates why the Western Left is so weak on the question of imperialism. Tankies are only anti-imperialist when it advances tankieism, and the rest of the left is only interested in anti-imperialism when it advances Western-style liberalism or “cultural progressivism” in the […]
