Your understanding of history is so bad you might as well have forgotten the past.

You’re so bizarrely bitter about something that happened decades before you were born. It’s very strange.

… most of what Orlov said, even under oath, or during his debriefing by the US intelligence officials, or in private discussions with his friend Gazur, has by now been established as outright invention.[7]

But again, you seem to be the only person that actually cares about this gold.

Frankly the fact that you’re arguing that you’d prefer the USSR to have not aided the Republic, and that you’d have preferred Franco to have held these gold reserves rather than the Soviets, just says a lot about you and your convictions.

You’re very odd. You were the one who brought up gold in this thread.

You were the only person to bring up gold…

Where? Hexbear takes ableism very seriously so I’m surprised to hear this.

Anarchism isn’t ‘anti-leader’.

They’re an economy dominated by the state in the interest of the people, rather than by capitalists in the interest of capitalists.

China’s imperfect but it’s the best we’ve got.

The left in general seems like it’s getting fucking owned.

Everywhere except China/Cuba/Korea yeah

Disengage

Again that’s just not how this works.

If you want a serious answer, I’d recommend looking up how the anarchist rural communes in Aragon functioned. They seemed to work really well, both in terms of equality and productivity, they just obviously couldn’t survive the war.

If I get time I’ll edit in some sources.

Why did you name this instance after yourself though, for real?

Yeah true, that’s quite different to the anarchist goal of burning down every structure and having us all live in a state of violent primitive chaos.

Oh wait, I’m not an idiot so I don’t actually believe that.

Ok, I’m just gonna disengage. You’re being really hostile, your understanding of history is bad, and you’re weirdly bitter about events you have absolutely nothing to do with. Please remember we’re just on the internet, not on opposite sides of the barricades.

FWIW: I think left unity is pretty important now, during another rise in fascism

Glad we’re on the same page on this at least

Interesting proposition, I’ll think it over.

I don’t agree with that at all. We all have fundamentally the same goals, just slightly different ways of organising and reaching them. There are far, far more things we agree on than disagree on, and on the latter we’re able to disagree on things respectfully.

You’ve also got to remember, we’re not revolutionaries or a party, we’re just people on a webforum. If a revolution was suddenly magicked out of thin air we might have a falling out, but until then what’s the problem? Most of our posting now is just criticism of our current world anyway, which is something we’re all very much aligned on.
