      I literally laughed out loud when I read your comment.

      You call yourself an ‘anarchist’ and then get on other people for cosplaying?

          I’m not upset that you don’t like unjust hierarchies, I’m amused that you picked the silliest possible way to express it.

          And I did in fact answer your question. It’s not my fault you didn’t understand it.

          Back in the Spanish Civil War the anarchist troops happily took orders and worked with other groups in a bigger cause.

          Reread what I wrote and really think about it.

          Here’s a history lesson.

          Frederick Douglas was an escaped slave. In 1860 he was a famous speaker who had a lot of influence even though he himself couldn’t vote. He had a choice; support the Abolition candidate who had virtually no chance of winning the election, or throw his support behind Abe Lincoln. Lincoln’s position was that saving the Union was more important than freeing the slaves.

          Douglas chose Lincoln. He figured that it was better to have an actual win and be able to talk to the President, than it was to lose and be out in the cold.
