Are you an anarchist or do you want social democracy in the US to have less obstacles? Pick a lane.
Anarchism needs democracy. I dont know where social came from. Democracy is its own thing, and anarchism is its own thing, and together they make a great society.
You… don’t know what social democracy the ideology is?
I dont know why you brought it into the conversation. It came out of nowhere.
Because “let’s repeal citizens united so the US government is more functional and the working class gets more treats” is… like, completely antithetical to anarchism but it’s what a lot of social democrats in the US like Burning Sandals say.
Its a step in the right direction. Gotta push for those in between the black bloc. If the right is gonna flood the zone why shouldnt we push all we can? Like I genuinely dont understand this "oh? You're an anarchist? And yet you participate in the society you live in?" Attitude.
I don’t even necessarily disagree that citizens united going away might have a couple minor benefits but yeah the idea of making the US state better and getting it to give US workers better treats is pretty far afield of anything considered to be anarchist theory or practice.
Hence my social democracy question because to me you sound a lot more like a confused social democrat mislabeling yourself than an anarchist.
It seems you are taking this one chain and applying it to my entire ideology. If you can't use liberals then don't. But we absolutely should be pushing anything that weakens oligarchs. The weaker the oligarchs the weaker the capitalist state. Its that simple. I think you're looking too deep into one call of a million calls to action.
