a quick rant about a field I have little knowledge of – on the left, there’s been a longtime split between the communists and the anarchists – the communist penchant for solving everything through mechanized military force («tankies») versus the utopian daydreaming of the anarchists («anarkiddies») – for me, I find the split easier to define in terms of the literature surrounding the two sides – the communist writings are an outgrowth of the German philosophical tradition and easily reveal their ivory tower bent – anarchist writings grew out of an epistolary tradition – communists insist on maintaining 100-year-old terminology that’s lost its meaning outside of their ivory tower – anarchists adapt their writings to the current conditions – capitalists exploit the worker, communists talk down to the worker, anarchists talk with the worker
