Protests that exist within the legal confines of the government youβre protesting against, are essentially just block parties. Theyβre a release valve.

"The banks" ah yes seize all the worthless money instead of learning from iran and occupying vital infrastructure
Tbf this is just referencing the Paris commune which would genuinely have benefitted from siezing the banks instead of taking loans(lmao)
Finally, something anarchists and communists can agree on
Yes, we're comrades who share a common struggle. But do you mean anarchists and marxists? Cause every single anarchist I know in real life is also a communist. And ever anarchist movement or org or squatting place or whatever too. Only online do I ever find anarchists who distance themselves from the idea of a stateless classless society (the universally accepted definition of communism). Like I assume you're okay with society being stateless. So you want it to have classes? Not really, right? Marxists and anarchists have different strategies for how to get there, but clearly every anarchists who wants a classless stateless society (i.e. communism) is also a communist.
When I made this comment its because on Lemmy you'd think communists and anarchists are completely opposing ideologies with how much the users fight each other. Seems kinda strange if you ask me cause my experience is your's in real life. The anarchists and communists I know in person happily get along with each other and provide aide in the same ways. I assume it stems from an examination of the past instead of a focus on the changes occuring now. I think today communists and anarchists have more reasons than ever to unite.
Idk there's a few users who call them selves anarchists that will rage against this
Goddamn right, we want everything, not just the banks

With all the lead poisoning in the US, Iβd say it works on the plebs too.
