And how did you get disillusioned? I am making a guide document concerning how to deal with reactionary elements in the left and counter the falacious arguments from compatible leftists to make them realize why they are wrong about certain things.

Crunchiest take was "the only consistent anarchism is egoist". The thing that brought me away from anarchism was "the only consistent anarchism is egoist". If you want to be academically consistent then anarchism is fine; if you want to affect the real world it's self-defeating. I grew up and stopped prioritizing feeling smart.

Crunchy was a typo of cringey. But I stand by it.

You got it down to a T why I don't particularly believe in anarchism.
