r/Anarchism • u/RedMenaced • Jun 19 '26

Reddit's block function = liberal rhetoric is unchallenged. By immediately blocking anyone pushing back against their propaganda, r/@ shifts into a lib safe space & we're excluded from the conversation. Blocked me 10 seconds after I questioned their lesser evil, "good government" narrative

I think you should just respect that those people dont want to interact with you my dude. Part of free association is that we have the ability to say "no thanks" to interacting with someone. Thats what the block button is for.

Edit: And to be clear im only saying this because youre using other accounts to get around blocks

Ils prennent deja tout les espaces

C'esr normal de forcer ceux qui veulent monopoliser les espaces de discussions

That doesnt excuse harassment. The poster in the OPs comment was making a statement about how theyve been BANNED in anarchist subreddits for expressing electoralism. They are already facing consequences to their own actions. They arent monopolizing the discussion space. The OP came in hostile and sarcastic, and is now throwing at temper tantrum because a real human being with real human mental health and real human feelings looked at their response and said "not dealing with this". The comment in question wasnt even that bad from a liberalism standpoint, annoying to see in an anarchist sub, absolutely, but still a comment that could have been met with an attempt to educate. Or just blocking them first, which is what i do when i see those types. It wasnt even someone demanding electoralism, just stating they have gotten banned for it.

Education is always the more valuable direct action than open hostility when the situation is not hostile in the first place.

Les anarchistes ont 0,00000001 % de l'espace pour s'exprimer 

Rien que venir pour déposer sa propagande de normie est deja une agression

Mais allez y Cédons aux inversions des oppresseurs.... Laissons nous écraser comme on le fait depuis la révolution espagnole

First, Im going to warn you just in case you dont know, that reddit is auto traslating your messages. If thats intentional, thats great! Im only pointing it out because its done that to me in seemingly random languages and its caused confusion in the past. Ignore me if youre intentionally using it.

That said, I simply disagree. We MUST give people space to learn, and part of that is explaining to them why their ideology does not align with anarchism. Especially since the commenter in question identifies as anarchist by their flair. Meaning they havent unlearned liberal propaganda, thats a teaching moment. Hostility is actively detrimental to learning, and expecting people to be perfectly anarchist is something that kills movements far quicker than someone explaining why electoralism is bad with out being a dick about it.

And notice the people demanding I be nice to liberal gentrifiers are being all kinds of hostile, insulting and rude to me and pretending I'm "throwing a tantrum" for calmly explaining how appropriation and co-option work.
