Love my comrades 
I really want this comment section to become a giant argument about whether the characters are correctly labelled by their tendency. I’ll kick us off.
Sam should be ML because he would have purged Gollum
I’m reasonably certain an anarchist would have purged gollum, plus Sam is the one thinking about his friends and small community while Frodo is constantly focused on world scale events.
Sam just wants to grow potatoes and keep his friends safe. If that means killing a spider that literally almost ate the devil then sure he’ll do that, but mostly he just wants to be a gardener.
Frodo also turns on Sam despite how helpful/loyal Sam has been the entire time and later is corrupted by absolute power. This is reminiscent of a certain ml country that turned on anarchists as soon as the revolution happened…
He’s not cOrRuPPTeD bY AbSOlutE pOWer meme. There objectively exists sabotage against their project and he is deceived by the evidence present to temporarily purging Sam from the party.
Your description is how to make me upvote 101
Have you ever considered maybe its not the ring that’s the problem but we just need better wielders?
Oof
Anarchists and communists can all agree, let’s burn this mother fucker down
we can agree that we should burn this mf down. we just disagree on what to build afterwards
We can worry about that later, you got a lighter?
it’s just sad, that the moment we hang the last billionaire, us commies and anarchist will immediately become enemies. 😞
It’s not inevitable, after all we want the same end result - a classless, stateless, moneyless society.
If it has truly gotten to the point where every last billionaire is gone, then I would argue that is pretty good evidence for the end of the hegemony of capital. I’m not sure that the material conditions of a world like that would require a dictatorship of the proletariat, and much more alignment with anarchists could be reached.
Of course, if we are talking about a more realistic scenario like a revolution in a single nation, then absolutely a central state is required to protect the revolution from reactionaries.
Chiapas did quite well, but they were too small to stand a chance, and Rojava is still going strong (as far as I’m aware, western media is intentionally hiding all news from Rojava), even though they are at war with a NATO state.
The situation for rojava isn’t looking great right now.
yhea, but I’m willing to bet its for external reasons.
Yeah it would seem really counterproductive and a solution would be best. It would be cool to find compromise there but of course fascism has to dominate the conversation currently
that’s the tragedy of Catalunya. on the civil war between Republican Catalunya and Fascist Spain, Catalunya had a minicivil war between the communists and anarchists.
they are a bit ideologically incompatible. both hate capitalism, so it makes sense that they are friends now, but one intendeds to replace capitalism with a proletariat state, and the other consideres states as intrinsically evil, regardless of capitalism.
I’ll miss all my commie friends once the revolution comes 😔
I mean, you could just fuck off into the woods and visit when you want to, real commies won’t hunt you. I think it’s legit for people to want to live collectively under a state, and I think it’s legit for people to want to be completely independent. Without the never ending appetite of capitalism, I think the two could coexist.
interesting, the revolution isn’t here and yet you preemptively exiled me from my community.
I think you have an ideological misconception.
anarchy isn’t individualism. it is the opposite of individual independence. it’s based on mutual aid, we help each other in a collective without a state that can legally kidnap, imprison, kill you whenever it deems convenient and will lash out at anything that will threaten the state.
it’s the needless power structures that are intrinsically evil, racism, capitalism, sexism, state/people.
We will win!
There are two political ideologies inside you
And they’re boys
They’re both boys and they’re kissing
:3
They are also heated rivals ;)
