"At The Cafe" by Errico Malasta and the documentary "Living In Utopia" which is on Zoe Baker's youtube channel were what made me hop the fence from being a council communist to an anarcho-communist. It was my starting point, so maybe it would be a good starting point for you. Pyotr Kropotkin is also a great source for anarchist theory, like "Conquest of Bread" and "Mutual Aid." If you want someone more recent then I hear Murray Bookchin is pretty good, although I haven't gotten around to reading anything by him yet. And as someone else mentioned, Anarchist Library is a great place to look for pretty much anything anarchist related. You'll likely find any of the books I mentioned there for free.

Yeah, I originally joined dbzero because its an anarchist instance and I am an anarchist, but grew to dislike it cause of how pro-AI it is. So I swapped to slrpnk. But slrpnk is down and so I am stuck using dbzero till its back up.

I find it kinda wild that they are so pro-AI too cause all of the friends I have that are anarchists are varying degrees of anti-AI. Personally, I would be fine with AI if we lived in an anarchist society because no one would be negatively affected by it. However we don't, so there is only a very very small niche use case where you can use AI ethically. Otherwise I see it as scabbing. Being anti-copyright shouldn't mean walking all over artists and other creators.

I wonder if there was a historical event about 10 years prior that might explain why the communists would view the SPD as just another variant of fascism? Maybe we should ask Rosa Luxemburg what she thinks on the situation

Edit: Not defending their anti-semitic and other fashy behavior, cause fuck them (they are MLs after all). But lets not pretend like the SPD didn't do anything to attract the ire of the communists.

I was two when this came out lol

Anarchist music is better. Mother Anarchy Loves Her Sons and A Las Barricados are peak. But in my opinion, the peakest is Italian anarchist music. La Marsigliese Del Lavoro is my favorite revolutionary song of all time.

The SPD used a reactionary militia to crush a communist revolution. That militia (the freikorps) would go on to help Hitler. Fuck the SPD, they're nothing but reactionaries with a coat of reddish paint (didn't even consider themselves communists, they were social-democrats)

We did it patrick, we saved the city!

Liberals pretending to be leftists strike the comments again. Good post 👍
