The Spanish revolution was quite a unique situation. It’s not like this keeps repeating among anarchist circles. The point being made is that this is a common occurrence
Also, isn’t ziq/Raddle super hostile to you/us for not being post-leftists? Like we definitely have sectarian tendencies. Edit: Which I think you are/the Anarchist Flotilla is doing a great job at keeping at bay, hence why you don’t notice it so much.
There’s always going to be disagreements, even pretty acerbic ones, but overall I don’t see the same kind of downright hate between anarchists who disagree with each other, like I see from splintered ML groups. I’ve been in online anarchist comms since 2008 or so, and it’s always been like this, even in the massive shitstorms of reddit circa 2010 or so, people weren’t denying their opponent’s anarchism. ML factions otoh are known for sending fucking assassins at each other :D
To be fair, I don’t think anarchists are immune to sectarianism:

Unfortunately for the CNT, it seems like the sectarianism never ended.
