Spain’s Revolutionary Anarchist Movement
(From the book “Anarchy: A Graphic Guide”, written and illustrated by Clifford Harper)
Wherever fascism’s origins lay, by the mid-1930s it seemed unstoppable. In Spain, however, it was halted for a while by the world’s strongest anarchist movement. The Spanish National Confederation of Labour (CNT) was formed in 1911 from a federation of workers’ and peasants’ unions that had been inspired by French anarcho-syndicalism. Completely independent, its goal was the overthrow of capitalism and the state and the establishment of an anarchist-communist society. This they believed could only be done by the workers and peasants seizing the means of production in order to produce and distribute goods and services in the interests - of the community.
There is an ignorance, willful or otherwise, in the Media/Cultural narrative we’ve seen unfolding.
The MSMedia are quick to label the Right as having ties to some militant Aryan groups (in rare cases, that might be true) all the while IGNORING the AntiFa/Lefts’ ADMITTED love for Communists.
To the uneducated, the Nazis were the most cruel, murderous group of people ever to live (and yes, they were evil in its purest form and should be despised) but if one were to look at the numbers, the Communists have the Nazis beat, not to mention that somewhere along the line in the dumbing down of America, it became cool in many circles to identify as Communist.
