"War between states will never bring us the opportunity to determine the free conditions of our lives. Even if the “smaller and weaker” or “invaded” state wins the war with the help of the allies, the #dictatorship of the #bourgeoisie will be preserved. Being exploited by the local bourgeoisie and oppressed by the local state is no victory. It’s not something we should sacrifice our lives for. Yet some are willing to sacrifice hundreds of thousands of lives for the illusion that the victory of one state is important for the future #liberation from all states. It’s one of the many oxymorons of these people. In the name of fighting against states, they urge us to defend a particular state and its nationalist/democratic ideology. In the name of fighting against war, they tell us that we must engage in war. How many more people have to die on the front for these oxymoron lovers to realise that #war between states cannot bring peace, that against #tyranny of states cannot be fought by collaboration with states, that capitalist exploitation cannot be fought by working class alliances with #capitalists ?
Whether the warmongers are capitalists, nationalists or the left of #capital , they are all terrified by the idea that the enemy state will win the war, but they are not at all terrified by the corpses of #proletarians that war always “produces” on both sides."

-within the #anarchist scene this (consistent #anti-capitalism and #proletarian #internationalism ) is in my opinion one of the relatively authentic anarchist positions that is the original core of #anarchism - as opposed to more peripheral themes, themes that some anarchist groups are concerned with - themes which in their significance and scope are more like minor cosmetic adjustments to existing society within a kind of "social democracy" actually conforming to the system, rather than a real #revolutionary ambition to overthrow the current system and create a #classless society
