RE: Wholly molly, I think I'm an anarchist!

in #anarchy6 years ago (edited)

I hate that the term has been co-opted by socialists and communists and others on the political left. Anarchy (to me anyway) is an extreme form of libertarianism and the antithesis of socialism/communism. Their attempt to co-opt and pose as 'anarchist' distorts the true principles of the philosophy and makes the layperson think anarchy is just a synonym for anti-establishment/anti-capitalist communism.

I agree it's definitely got a lot of different definitions, uses and sub-classifications. I can see why there is so much confusion over the term.
