| Runa216 said: Anarchy is the most extreme version of far right politics while Fascism is ironically near the farthest end of the left, with a dictatorship being I believe the farthest left. And that's not some sort of cultural hot take, it is the truth by definition. |
You have it backwards. Anarchism (the political philosophy) originated on the far-left. Early anarchists like Godwin, Proudhon, Bakunin, Kropotkin, Joseph Déjacque were all leftists and socialists (in Godwin's case proto-socialist.)
It wasn't until the 1950's when the right-wing liberal Murray Rothbard tried to synthesize certain forms of American individualist anarchism (Benjamin Tucker's "Boston Anarchism") which was still a far-left ideology, with the so-called Austrian School of Economics (right-wing liberalism) that there ever was a so-called "right-wing anarchism" and most actual anarchists don't see "propertarian anarchists" or "anarcho-capitalists" as genuine anarchists.
