Geometric Denazification

You have Leninists doing this parody of anarchism on this site where they’ll say things like Every Nurse is a Cop and Should be Shot but they somehow mean it Marxistly.

That’s not something every anarchist is going to agree with, that’s why it reads like a parody of edgelord anarchism, but expressed by non-anarchists genuinely as a “Marxist” politic.

I’m not against the non-tumblr concept of youth liberation but even that has its roots in anarchism. During 2020 high schools had Youth Liberation Fronts during the uprisings and they were explicitly anarchist. They were very active in my town during the uprisings at least and I saw chapters across the country.

A local anarchist was the first person I saw get called out on social media (Twitter) for assaulting people after pushing youth liberation. He was mocked for a “bedtime liberation” post and then it was later revealed he had abused multiple women. This was an adult. First indication I saw that “youth liberation” was being exploited by adults to push rape.

“Let people do whatever they want, maaaaan” is typically associated with anarchists but it’s primarily Leninists on this site promoting that sort of libertarianism unbecoming of a potential party member.

Whatever it is, I guarantee you it is not causing anywhere near the same social or health problems as alcohol and tobacco.

Relax your Reaganite anxieties. Society is still functioning with alcoholism totally normalized and while we should absolutely invest in more addiction treatment services to address that, the world hasn’t ended. Neither will it end because kids are recreationally abusing commercial grade laughing gas you usually encounter medically as a child at the dentist. The city hasn’t gone to shit because there’s homeless people smoking whatever on the streets.

Some of these things are harmful but still nowhere near as harmful as the substances our society (and likely you) have totally normalized and freely sell to adults. Some of these substances aren’t even all that harmful, people are having moral crises about people being “unproductive.”
