Anti-communism, even coming from the “left,” is still deeply reactionary. It’s largely a petite-bourgeois ideology, valuing individualism over inter-national prosperity for all. Not all anarchists are anti-communists, many times in history Marxists and anarchists have worked together to achieve common goals. The anarchists that are anti-communist, however, are reactionary and anti-proletarian.
Any socialist that doesn’t eventually want to reach communism is either a social democrat, ie not a socialist at all but a welfare capitalist, or is someone that doesn’t understand how socialism works its way towards full collectivization and internationalism.
Anti-communist “leftists” do the jobs of the imperialist bourgeoisie for them. Rather than uniting all that can be, they side with the imperialists in the conflict between imperialists and communists. Such a strategic error is thoroughly backwards, and is convenient for those who wish to endlessly critique the world without actually rolling up their sleeves to change it.
question: i consider myself anarchist, and i have nothing against communism itself besides the fact that i prefer anarchism and will always chose that over communism, does that make me anti-communist? or that would be it to actively boicot and actively go against communism and communists?
That’s a normal anarchist, many of which have worked hand in hand with Marxists throughout the centuries. Although, I do think “preference” is a bit of an odd choice of words, the differences between Marxists and Anarchists are more of an analytical nature than a preference of outcomes, the analysis comes before the outcomes.
Agree, only means that calling Nazi all anti-communist is a falacy and much the cause of the force of the right wings. The left isn’t often capable to agree with others because some idiologic differences, even if they all communists, but Leninists, Trotzkists, Marxists, Maoists, Stalinists, etc., while the right only need a briefcase with money to agree with the other rightwings.
The politics is to make commitments to create a common force against a powerful enemy. Important are the common goals of different points of view, not the “only my truth is the only valid”, this is precisly the fascism and the danger of simplifying “anti-community = Nazi”, we need commonsensism, not wiggeling red flags and Mao-Bibles, but educate and speak with the people. Still a long way to go.
Anti-communism and fascism are tied, historically. Whenever a violent reaction against communists has occured, historically, these have been thoroughly intermixed with nationalism and fascism. It’s important to recognize the ties.
