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).

A pile of shit that large should be moved with the appropriate tools; ideally a shovel or a spade. Getting a turd like that off the street with your bare hands is just unhygenic.

This punch was so fucking important, look at how many people got behind this kind of action. The punch was even largely praised on /r/politics and /r/blackpeopletwitter for god sake
[–]DeadPresidentJFK anarcho-communist 40 points41 points42 points  (4 children)
Pretty awesome how just one fucking punch, right time, right place, can become one of those historically defining events.
[–]AbortusLuciferum- fash sit down or get put down 19 points20 points21 points  (3 children)
I kinda wish /r/altright finds the guy so I can know who to thank. I'd totally donate to his GoFundMe campaign to cover his legal costs. Then again him remaining anonymous also has it's charm.
[–]LawfulFalafelWaffel 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
There's a meme going around claiming to have found the identity of the guy but I'm not certain how legit it is. Don't want to share it in case it is, but a quick search over at r/altright will bring it up.
[–]OpenSeasonOnLeftists 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
Trust me. We'll find him first.
[–]RedStarFooty 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
It was praised on /r/blackpeopletwitter and condemned in /r/news. Wtf
[–]ScoutKnuckleball 25 points26 points27 points  (4 children)
Is it ok if we have a woman punch Conway in the face next?
[–]DeadPresidentJFK anarcho-communist 4 points5 points6 points  (0 children)
Under-the-belly restrictions don't apply to women vs rapists. Just saying.
[–]eh_politico mutualist 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
Maybe a two man operation involving spray glue and a glitter bomb.
[–]mazigazi -2 points-1 points0 points  (1 child)
"if we have a woman..."??? sounds a bit controlling. maybe she wants to do it on her own. or maybe not.
[–]ScoutKnuckleball 2 points3 points4 points  (0 children)
Think of the shitstorm if a man does it. I'm a woman. I would do it.
[–]decarabiaXVII InsurrectionistACTION NOT FUCKING APATHY 31 points32 points33 points  (0 children)
Yeah well,I didn't see anyone else going after him.They already play the victim.Fuck them.
Punch Nazis,Kick nazis,throw objects at them,fuck...sneeze on the bastards,stop engaging them in dialog and stop feeling anything but joy for DickSpencer's busted ego.

little tip for whacking fascists with hammer or shovel next time: carry a tool purse or waist with you next time, print a generic construction card, or ideally fake worker card that has construction contractor in the area. No need for hard hat, just a pair of worker boots. wear all black, hoodie up. Fuck them up where nobody expected. Do it hard. Leave all at once. If cops stopped you, they will have difficult time making it out who's who.
was a method used by some member of kitchener's antifa and (sadly) criminal gangs to confront with fashes.
[–]d3adbor3d2 12 points13 points14 points  (0 children)
a lot of people have a very limited perception of violence. they will lose their shit over a burning cvs and at the same time not feel a thing for people marginalized systematically
[–]totallydialectical anarcho-syndicalistwobbly | Queer Anarcha-Syndicalist 11 points12 points13 points  (0 children)
I agree, I think a shovel would have been more appropriate. FYI, this post was clearly an ironic one.
[–]CynicalJoePlus Anti-fascistBASH THE FASH 7 points8 points9 points  (0 children)
You got me for a second ahaha, I thought you were another neo nazi coming here to whine about it.
[–]DeadPresidentJFK anarcho-communist 5 points6 points7 points  (0 children)
I guess some people gotta get their hands dirty... ;-)
[–]hobbit6 4 points5 points6 points  (0 children)
The fact that even liberals were OK with it was pleasantly surprising.
[–]LickTheBoot 5 points6 points7 points  (0 children)
A piece of shit like him doesn't deserve to live, hopefully he won't be long for this world.
[–]Ecti anarchist 2 points3 points4 points  (0 children)
A shovel nor spade will remove the stain, I recommend lead.
[–]YouHaveNoRights 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
I'd bet that nobody was expecting to see Richard Spencer at that particular moment. Our comrade is lucky that he happened to have a mask on him.

[–]bontesla 29 points30 points31 points  (4 children)
Eh it wasn't the greatest idea to do it in front of a camera since he can now play the victim and we look like the bad guys.
Everyone collectively should shame any media outlet that gives a Nazi a platform.
[–]Plebtastica comment score below threshold-11 points-10 points-9 points  (3 children)
Until that happens we should be wary of media and not give them ammo to paint us as violent thugs. There is a reason spencer does not have brownshirts with him
[–]pining-for-fnords anarcho-communist 15 points16 points17 points  (0 children)
I've seen a much more positive response to the punch than I ever imagined, even from liberals. I don't think too many people sympathized with ol' Dick, which is an extremely positive sign.
The ones who pull out the horseshoe theory are too far gone up their own ass to worry about courting, at this point. But the liberals who liked it, and who are meme-ifying it, they've got potential.
[–]bontesla 4 points5 points6 points  (1 child)
I wonder what a Gallup poll would look like on punching Nazis...
[–]Plebtastica 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
Probably quite positive but the media is pro corporation and so anti us
[–]freedom_flower person of colourto burn down the whitehouse 15 points16 points17 points  (1 child)
the purpose of whacking a fash is not to appeal liberals, it's to send the rest of their scums a message.
[–]decarabiaXVII InsurrectionistACTION NOT FUCKING APATHY 3 points4 points5 points  (0 children)
its quite cathartic as well.
[–]DontSleep1131 LGBT anarchist 6 points7 points8 points  (0 children)
He's a nazi. if he plays the victim and some people sympathize with him, then they are probably pretty fucked individuals to begin with.
