I was “asked recently” who my favorite anarchist was, and since I didn’t really hear/see much response, I got to thinking: I’d kinda like to see an opinion thread about everone’s various different favorite anarchists, and why

I know we each all define the term slightly differently, so like, I went with Toussaint Louverture and Jean Jacques Dessalines, but I know there’s lots of current folks that I just haven’t kept up on.

Disclaimer/Nota Bene: only use safe-to-“out” responses. No like “oh, my brother hacked the IRS” that’ll get “The Man” hunting us all down

    The most discreet and anonymous among them, because anarchists should never fall into the cult of personality.

    I dunno, Zoe Baker? I’m not good at picking favorites, and it’s debatable whether one should pick favorite anarchists, anyways.

    The one who draws all the circle As in my city.

    Also I really like the one that cooked the food for the free/donation based food handout.

    And the one who takes a shift in the local anarchist library so i can hang out there.

    If i had to actually give like proper well known anarchist, i like Thought Slime (really funny youtuber).
