Incredibly funny to me that anarcho-feminism and queer anarchism are in different tiers. Like yeah dude let's start ranking liberatory struggles good idea, tell me which types of anti racism are "very cool" and which are just "aight" next
the_dunk_tank
It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
there's no way I could ever know what all those flags mean also why are they polandballs

Probably because a map-game brained 15 year old made this.
Probably because a map-game brained ~~15 year old~~ unpaid bureau intern made this.
That's actually the flag of the Ba'ath Party in Iraq and Syria. Both it and the Palestinian flag are based on the earlier Arab Revolt flag.
(Not excusing this tierlist at all though, it's still awful)
god damn the marketplace of ideology is looking well stocked today
But like a capitalist supermarket, it's full of the same product repackaged 15 times.
97% of socialists who have ever existed are in the green verbose box
Those ideologies that turned previously backwater countries into superpowers who became the first to visit space?
Sorry sweaty, they actually harmed those counties 💅
It's actually sad to me how low Ho Chi Minh thought is.
Vietnam resisted US imperialism and won. They haven't been the target of such a focused propaganda campaign like DPRK or China. There's no reason to believe they've done anything wrong. No atrocity propaganda comes out of Vietnam. They mind their own fucking business and try to help their people.
And still, STILL it's not good enough for western leftists. It's fucking pathetic.
well the thing is the fact that they successfully fought the us means they MUST have done some great evil, right?
No atrocity propaganda comes out of Vietnam.
Clearly someone hasn't seen Rambo II
100% i'm used to all the shit the other tendencies gets but i have no clue how someone who believes themselves to be on the left could possibly hate Uncle Ho.
Most of these aren't real ideologies but just being an anarchist and also another thing
yeah i can't imagine being an anarchist who places any importance at all in your tendency label. like do you have a body of theory that you value? no not a page on the /r/PCM wiki, i mean something that someone who wanted to drive a stake through the heart of the state wrote.
If your ideology doesn't exist in the real world, it can't do anything bad or tankie to ruin it.
harmful to the global south
Chavismo
Maoism
Ba'athism
Juche
Ho Chi Mihn Thought
Harm is when you improve the country and the living conditions
Love how all these are all unique and localized reponses from the global south yet they are damaging somehow lol. Something something civilizing mission.
Making a tier list of how effectively different ideologies have been able to improve material conditions, but making it upside down on purpose.
social democracy in the same tier as marxism-leninism
Juche, national bolshevism, social democracy, they're basically the same thing with different names.
That one actually offended me
putting all the ideologies into "liberalism" tier
4 tiers of "Hasn't made a material impact on the world" and one tier of "Has made a material impact on the world"
I'd move Anarcho-communism/syndicalism down to the bottom tier because they also had material impact on world, while moving nazbol, "unconditional accelerationism" and... I think it says Ujaman? The green one on the very berry bottom. No offense but I haven't heard of it. Anyways, move those three out of there, and lastly merge Leninism, Marxism-Leninism, and Stalinism into one, because thats just repeating yourself three times.
Platformism: good
Leninism, MLism, etc.: counter-revolutionary
Council communism: aite
Titoism: counter-revolutionary
Liberation theology: aite
Leninism, MLism etc: counter-revolutionary
Egoism, anti-civ: not counter-revolutionary
Make it make sense...
Also this person hasn't read any Ho Chi Minh thought, nor Nyerere or Juche theory, I would bet money on this.
stop trying to make forms of analysis into tendencies reddit. intersectionality is not a fucking political program
Good = things that now exist largely as quirky choices in the ideology section of the supermarket. Bad = anything that has actually managed to win any power
Why is anarcho-bidenism not included in the list btw?
how is "post civ" very cool but "anarcho primitivism" no bueno?
aren't they the same thing?
edit: and "anti civ"is in the aite row.
"some people on twitter said that anarcho primitivism is based, but some other people said it's equivalent to fascism. i cannot be bothered to find out what their arguments actually were, and i have never actually read any critiques of civilization because my interest in the topic extends to finding a new polandball guy to draw, so i'll uncritically download and repeat both opinions as my own."
i don't care this is incoherent hogwash it still HURTS to be put on the level of social democrats. brutal insult
my brain is melting out my fuckin ears
wait we can do this? BRB I'm gonna go do a tier list about which trees make the best lumber despite knowing next to nothing about milling and curing wood. Then I'm gonna do a tier list of all the anime I haven't watched based off vibes I get from what people who don't like anime have said.
This image is a bit crusty, hard to read.
sorry, this is what it looked like when i found it and i'm not looking for the original
New ideology on display here - Western Burger Thought. It's anarchism with Burger American characteristics, which boils down to the belief that since you've never experienced or seen a good leader wield the power of the state for the liberation of the working class, then it must not be possible. Ergo, the power of institutions is the only enemy of the working class.
damn shame what internet """anarchists""" do to the good name of cool irl anarchists
irl anarchists don't agree with MLs either. People on this site love adding "internet" or "online" before "anarchist" to excuse blatant sectarianism
Is this how I find out that I have glaucoma? Like how the hell are you all reading this lmao
wtf are any of the top ones?
internet ideologies
wtf is illegalism bruh
Literally half the people here are illegalists of some stripe, we just don't make it the whole thing. You know that thing where you say "Be gay, do crime"? It's that.
Specifically its anarchism where crime serves either as propaganda of the deed of as a means of harming businees/reclaiming property, or you reject societal norms of ownership and act on egoist principles.
Posadism must not be dogshit cause it ain't here
