While I do genuinely feel sorry that this roommate of yours behaved in such awful and shitty way, my point was about the larger communities as a whole. Especially now that there are openly fascist people in power in the US and in a lot of other countries, I believe it's even more important to be united. Or at least, as I quoted before, know where the differences lie.
That doesn't mean being supportive of wrong behaviors and/or people of course. Being critical of wrongdoing is an essential skill. But in my opinion one can't be as critical when generalizing about such large groups
I'll continue to trust Tankies as much as the historical record indicates Anarchists should.
Which is 0, less than 0, some negative amount.
If you know of any historical revolutionary movements involving a distinct and significant amount of Anarchists that did not include Tankies betraying and/or murdering all their Anarchist 'allies', please let me know.
EDIT: Here, I can 'read more theory, noob' too

I may not be an Anarchist, but i’m sure saving that link. Thanks.
