Subreddit of the week: /r/SocialistRA (Socialist Rifle Association)

Anarchism is a social movement that seeks liberation from oppressive systems of control including but not limited to the state, capitalism, racism, sexism, speciesism, and religion. Anarchists advocate a self-managed, classless, stateless society without borders, bosses, or rulers where everyone takes collective responsibility for the health and prosperity of themselves and the environment.
If you are not yet familiar with anarchism, check out /r/Anarchy101.
If you want to debate, try /r/DebateAnarchism.
/r/Anarchism is for discussing topics relevant to anarchism. The moderation structure and policies are not intended to be an example of an anarchist society; an internet forum is not a society. If you join the discussion here, we assume that you are an anarchist, an ally, or want to learn more about anarchism. Review the Anti-Oppression Policy to see how you can help make space for marginalized people.
Conversations about moderation, rules, bans, and other meta topics take place in /r/metanarchism (message the mods to get in).

Honestly, I'm starting to get more and more people to be open minded about anarchism and violence. Like a liberal lady I work with was complaining about all the bullshit Christian anti trans anti woman policies being enacted here in Texas, and I started talking about anarchism and violence being the only thing that will actually work in addressing these issues, and they didn't shrug it off or dismiss me as they usually would. They said "maybe so" and asked curious questions.
More and more people are going to be ok with violence if it is couched as anti trump, and more and more people might be willing to get radical and act as well.
It seems like it might just be a particularly interesting time to be alive.

I don't know if Trump's election is waking people up or something, but I feel like people around me have been way more open to violence as a result.

Literally 5 seconds ago my SO started on the same liberal "smashing windows achieves nothing" spiel, and "I guarantee in 2 weeks everyone will have gotten over it" etc. I just don't have the energy to argue after educating every single person around me. You'd think that after 3 years of being in my vicinity a person would pick up on these things.
