I liked the anti-establishment, Anarchist/socialist vibes of the Hardcore punk rock island. Don't like all of the macho posing and shrieking (neither in punk and especially not in the more "black" part); and double dislike the crass commercialization of so much of it.
Saying you are privileged without actually saying it. Everything is political, even partying.
Yeah very good song choices there.
Anarchist/socialist are such funny words to put a slash between. They seem like such polar opposite political structures
Consult "Homage to Catalonia" by George Orwell. In the Spanish Civil War, Orwell soldiered with anarchists and socialists and the rest of the worker's parties, against the fascists.. until the inevitable purge.
Anarchism has historically been a current within the larger Socialist movement. Socialism is not just establishment sheep-herding rhetoric like Bernie Sanders' or the French Parti Socialiste; nor just the centrlized-state authoritarianism of the USSR. In fact, the labor movement in the US once had more prominent Anarchist leaders than state-socialists - the struggle for the 8-hour workday and May 1st, the Industrial Workers of the World, etc. And there are Anarchist traditions in the workers' movements of Latin America and Europe of course, and to a much lesser extent in Asia early 20th century Asia.
It depends.
In their original political and philosophical roots, socialists pursued the same goals as anarchists: a political order without top-down hierarchical structures, but one that is self-managed from within. Workers for workers. No hierarchies constructed by things like patriarchy or capitalism.
Communism, which is supposed to lead to socialism (?), can be diametrically opposed to anarchism, as it incorporates the idea of imperialism, a doctrine of order and authoritarianism.
People who are called socialists today, such as Bernie Sanders, are not socialists in that sense, but rather liberals in the guise of socialism who subordinate themselves to the order of capitalism and thus have very, very little to do with anarchism.
But also little to do with socialism. For reformist approaches pursue the treatment of symptoms rather than systemic changes that tackle the actual problems at their root. Anarchist structures, on the other hand, are also called “root movements,” as they aim to address fundamental changes—even if only on a small scale—at their very roots.
