What sort of anarchist are you?

Postby Pope Joan » Sat Jul 09, 2011 6:06 am

It just may be that you are not satisfied to take the label of communist, capitalist or fascist.

Well then, perhaps you are an anarchist!

Here's a quiz to see where if any you might fit within that spectrum.

I have been told I am syndico anarchist but according to this quiz, maybe not.

My results:

You Scored as Christian Anarchist

Christian anarchism is one of the oldest anarchist philosophies, arguably dating back to the early Christian church. Christian anarchists emphasise non-violence and oppose the state as God is the only legitimate source of authority. Key thinkers include the Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy.

Christian Anarchist
75%
Anarcho-Capitalist
50%
Anarcho-Communist
45%
Anarcha-Feminist
45%
Anarcho-Syndicalist
25%
Anarcho-Primitivist

So are these subtypes valid?

Should there be more/fewer/other?

The kind that doesn't believe in private property.

I'm the kind that believes anarchy can never be a permanent condition; rather, it should be used in short periods of time to remove tyrannous governments before a new state can be formed. I believe this is both good and necessary, because anarchy is a self-destroying situation.

So yeah, I'm a statist. Voted "I'm not."

Ah, but you could have voted for "other categories are needed" or however I worded it; you are obviously a "Tempero-Anarchist"!

I suppose you would approve of the recent uprisings in the Mideast then?

I'm not!
Kalaspia-Shimarata's flag represents the Union between K&S. The dark blue represents the sea and the light blue represents the sky. In Kalashi language considers light blue and dark blue to be different colours. England colonised, and unified K&S, between 1774 and 1953, and English, light blue and dark blue are considered to be the same colour. Therefore, the contrast between dark blue and light blue represents the union, but the differences between K&S where as blue being two but simultaneously one colour represents K&S being two, but simultaniously one entity. The opposite to the symmetry represents the unity and indipendance of K&S, whilst also representing the Kalashi culture of opposite symmetry.KS is 75% Christian, hence the cross.

16. As most workers are male, workers self-management will not neccessarily lead to freedom for women.

Most workers aren't male...

Anyway, a huge surprise for (although,s trictly speaking, I'm not an anarchist). ;)

You Scored as Anarcho-Capitalist

Anarcho-capitalism is perhaps more closely linked the libertarian tradition than anarchism as it favours a free market and a stateless society. Private businesses would replace the functions of the state. This form of anarchism is largely an American phenomenon and first emerged in the 1950s (although it arguably has its roots in 19th century individualist anarchism and classical liberalism). Key thinkers include Murray Rothbard.

Is there any major difference between syndicalist and communist? Or is it purely aesthetic? I consider myself to sympathise with both those tendencies of the anarchist movement..

Anarcho-Communist
Anarcho-communists seek to build a society based upon a decentralised federation of autonomous communes and a moneyless 'gift economy'. The movement first emerged in the late 19th century and has had a large influence particularly in Spain, Italy and Russia. Key thikers include Peter Kropotkin and Errico Malatesta.

That's okay. If you're ever worried about it, read some posts by some of the native English speakers on here. They don't even have the excuse that they're still learning. :p
