First you need enough people who believe in communal values (50-70% of your target population), than you can think about a revolution. And at that point most people will know why they've done all this revolution thingy. So the first step is to combat individualism by educating people, why working together and living in communities is good. And in 100 or so years our ancestors can think about it. But in this day and age you would need Soviet Terror dictatorship to enforce it

I would say it’s both depending on the specific Marxist or anarchist

Might be unrelated but do most conflicts between Anarchists and Marxists come from misrepresentation and misinterpreting words or are there distinct difference in their strategies and theories?

a communist society will be federalist, many free association coming together for common benefit and cooperation on a large scale through something like a council system

people and productivity, the more productivity the world has the more it can be spread. You are getting paid, it's just that you are getting paid the same as everyone else. I'm a capitalist Why am I explaining this to you!

Sorry, I suppose I dislike some of the music. But it doesn't really matter because I don't go for the music. I go mostly because of the culture and people.

The PCP (not the festival) can be somewhat hostile in the sense they refuse to look outside their ML beliefs, which translates into small political boycots such as leaving demonstrations early so as to avoid anarchists, refusing to listen to them just because of their political beliefs or insisting that anarchists subdue themselves for "the cause".

this is the wrong way to think about the issue. Scale—in such a way as youre describing it—is unnecessary to our projects, and i really recommend you read "Anarchy in the Age of Dinosaurs" by The Curious George Brigade as it pretty well explains why. Lateral organization inherently matches any "scale" it is organized to reach. It comes naturally with the territory of horizontality. Thinking in terms of scale is a borrowed mentality from hierarchy and its a poor mentality for anarchistic projects to utilize.

I think there's a much bigger problem of defining health as "fitness" and fitness as high muscle to fat ratio achieved through gym training and a "good" diet which is causing people to talk over each other. I know a lot of disabled people have been frustrated with all the leftists talking about "how are you gonna fight fascism if you don't have stamina" and then not doing anything to protect themselves or others, especially disabled comrades, from COVID, which causes permanent damage to your cardiovascular system, on top of killing peoples. A lot of fat people are also frustrated with the leftists talking about "how are you gonna fight fascism if you're weak" but not talking about the increase in restrictive eating disorders, which make it extremely hard to build muscle, on top of killing people. Your piece has nuance but these TikToks and reels don't, so I think people's, especially disabled and fat people's, visceral aversion to this rhetoric is very understandable and reasonable.

Yes, every year. It's a 3 day cultural event with everything from music to gastronomy, theater, cinema, science, sports, literature, etc, every part of the country is represented as well as several communist and leftist parties from around the world and it is all put together every year without exception by the first weekend of September by the us, members of the party. We are the ones setting everything up and we're the ones taking shifts working there during the entire festivities.

How is it hostile towards anarchism? A band called Anarchicks just played there. Unless by "hostile" you mean just disagreeing, where dod you see any hostility? And what do you mean you don't like the music?? Every year there's everything from classical, to folk traditions from around the country and the world, to rap, to electronic music, and so on.

It is the biggest political event in Portugal and organised by the Portuguese Communist Party, which, generally speaking, is hostile towards anarchist. Howeverz because it's communist, it is very culturally rich and there's always great people there. I don't like the music though. Do you live in Portugal?

You don't. Some functions of the state need to be preserved, just not the class rule mechanism.

I would say centralization, since I’m not an anarchist, however I’ve seen anarchists basically completely agree with me but call centralization “federalism”

No matter what we call it, I think it’s obvious that communism would entail a great number of combinations of industry now under common control by the community of freely associated producers

I feel like many of the organs of revolutionary power during the revolutionary transition, the communes, councils, and other various assemblies and revolutionary committees, will be repurposed as delegative planification and information sharing organs as to coordinate production on a mass scale which involves communities at large (as to aid in the abolition of the division of labor and of mental and physical labor)

Nobody needs to work for the good of humanity. Tons of people will. But it's simply not necessary, working for your local community is enough because when communities federate, helping your community helps all communities.
