bruh. anarchism and communism are historically tied to and associated with socialism. anarchism was born off the workers mouvement. like communism. communism describes more support for a potential and desired communisticsociety where everything are held in common where people needs gets met according to what they need. and without being forced to work to 'earn' living.

anarchism is more tied with the social critic against all power dynamics mostly social, economic and religious and comtemporainly extends to gender, sexuality, and many more.

saying anarchism, communism and socialism are distinct and as different beetween each other like how liberalism is distinct from monarchism is like extremely ignorant and intentionally ignoring the historical, ideological and methodological elements of the three. the three advocates for the freedom of everyone instead of the few. the three advocate for worker control in economical activities. the three advocate for social progress and cultural transformation. if you think the three arent just different branches of the same struggle and fight, you are willingly choosing to divide people over slight ideological differences.

theres is a reason anarchism have many socialist tendancies like libertarian communism and libertarian socialism, its because the most liberatory economical system is communism and where workers are the one in control and chose for themselves in common. also "anarcho capitalism" is in no way, shape or form anarchist. anarchism isnt also 'being edgy' saying that we need 'no rules' or wanting chaos and destruction. those are a stereotype and misrepresentation of the idea of anarchy. anarchism requires a form of social cooperation to exist. its intrinsically socialistic and aims for similar liberatory goals in the fight against capital.

further communism and socialism are litteraly the same thing. both wants more rights, autonomy and political power to workers as a class. that they own, manage and control their own workplace. and this system is socialism but a natural and logical extension of worker self-governance is communism. if workers are in control by the intermediary of self governed councils and are the most prevalent form of economical relationship, there is no need to commodify, there is no need for a salary and no need to pay for anything as those will just be artificial and unnecessary intermediaries for the distribution of goods. you dont need currency (money) or markets to have socialism. if you think socialism requires markets and currency. you arent socialists. you are a social democrat which is a form of liberalism.
