@bo_salomons @NotPotBol Shop wherever you like. My criticism was of the graffiti that is presenting shopping local as something "radical". Of course this does not reflect on anarchism as a whole, but boy have I seen a lot of self-proclaimed anarchists who's radicalism doesn't go beyond stuff like this.

No, exactly the opposite. The chains of Tsarist Russia's Imperialism (and also Western imperialist interests) were broken precisely by the proletariat overthrowing capitalism.

People who recommend Stalin are the type who don't want to put in any effort and just want to shovel pre-digested store-bought porridge into their mouth. They also think that everyone else is just as lazy as them, betraying what they really mean by calling Stalin "proletarian".

This is exactly why we can't have "nice capitalism" or reform it. They will sooner sabotage the economy than give up a fraction of their wealth. The only way forward is for us to expropriate them completely.

Ukraine is fighting a just, defensive war of liberation against a murderous invasion launched by a kleptocratic, chauvinist, far right autocracy. There’s nothing left wing about allowing nations to be conquered and subjugated by oppressors.

Ah, yes. It's the fault of a handful of Trotskyists who warned against Starmer and the ruthlessness of the right-wing from the get-go. The fact that the "left" completely folded under the antisemitism smear campaign has nothing to do with the current state of Labour, of course.
