wildly over-represented on the internet

I've encountered takes about as bad as this in irl anarchist spaces and I promise you many people here have similar stories that they just keep close to the chest out of fear of violating the anti-sectarian rule.

It's worse if we're talking foreign policy. One of the most active anarchists I knew (honestly put me to shame), did tons of organizing, also openly advocated for US "humanitarian intervention" in Iran. Not many of his comrades seem to strongly disagree with him.

An "anarchist" friend who introduced me to a lot of leftist ideas is now a committed Zionist smdh

Less so now, but I used to see a lot of people calling for a "no state solution" in Palestine.

Yeah I'm sure the rabid settler Israeli population will totally coexist with Palestinians in a free open commune.

I've encountered takes much worse than OOP from real life anarchists, though the main one I'm thinking of I think I can't talk about for opsec reasons. Let it suffice to say that it was literal Nazi apologia that was pretty extreme and basically motivated by wanting to own the commies (this person came off as being brainrotted by internet anarchists who tell campfire stories about how they were stabbed in the back in Spain).

I have seen that and maintain that typical anarchists are much better than the OOP, and I would expect that the comrades of the anarchist in your story were cowed by his record and reputation as such a prolific activist, which is still wrong of them but different from them not viewing such an invasion as being barbaric.
