    The whole context for this thread is you claiming that an actually existing socialist state is not really socialist because it doesn’t pass your purity test.

      Well it was originally me starting a mud fight about the meaning of the word tankie, but then we got sidetracked.

      IMO, anarchists and communists have more overlap than we might think we do.

        Sure, anarcho-syndicalism seems very compatible with Marxism for example. The main disagreement tends to be around what is actually to be done about the dictatorship of capital that we all live under in the west.
