I've consistently noticed this with UChicago anthro students they're just utterly incapable of even conceiving of a world in which there are no bosses. Even when they're reading anthropological accounts of horizontal movements they literally don't

believe that they're real. That's the kind of people UChicago produces, and it means that even the nominal leftists end up regurgitating Engles' argument that the violence of the slave breaking her chains is the same as the violence of the master.

This is of course incredibly goddamn convenient for the ruling class because hierarchical and bureaucratic can be bought off or picked apart through assassinations, see Russell Maroon Shoatz's The Dragon and the Hydra.

This is why when dealing with a horizontal movement the cops immediately appoint someone as the leader, because someone who thinks of themselves as a leader with special powers is easier to subvert.

Also saying that "anti-authoritarianism is the new non-violence" after 3 months of anarchists engaging in running street battles with the police is just fucking absurd, a pure manifestation of ideology unmediated by anything so trivial as reality.

It's funny these people always talk about Fanon but they never mention the part of Wretched of the Earth where he warns about how a new colonized intellectual class buoyed by a few heroes from the revolutionary war inevitably begin to distance

The other reason they don't want to talk anti-authoritarianism is that the New People's Army literally destroyed its own revolution by just fucking massacring a bunch of their own members in a series of show trials.

Their response, of course, is that the massacres were the product of "revisionism", which is of course fucking horseshit and eludes the real problem that centralized, hierarchical revolutionary parties inevitably detach themselves from their

Thus the old Bolsheviks become capitalists and the "intelligence officers" appointed by the Party itself become "revisionists". Those who oppose Mao are Capitalist Roaders until Mao allies with the capitalists, and the

Lol yeah this is more evidence for my long running theory that the anarchist to MLM pipeline is composed of people who got into anarchism because they just wanted to fucking fight people and left when they found an ideology more suited to it.
