☭Anarchist

23rd July 2011, 03:02

Hello from Toronto, Ontario.

Well, I'm from San Jose, CA but currently in Canada for the summer. I'm 20 and in my second year of university. Not sure how I ended up on revleft. I was researching communism/anarchism a bit and stumbled upon it. Always considered myself as a socialist but after researching it a bit, I agree with a lot of communism and anarchism's philosophies.

So, after debating it over with myself (since I really never thought about my political views to this extent), I think I'd be best described as a socialist with communist/anarchist tendencies.

Welcome to RevLeft, comrade!
I would suggest reading from the Learning forum to find out more about general Libertarian Socialism and the different philosophies that fall within that category such as Anarchist Communism, Anarcho-Syndicalism, and Left Communism, since that appears to be your general leading, but don't forget to research Marxism either. Good luck!:)

Thanks for the suggestions about what may interest me and I'll look at Marxism as well. I may not be a strict Marxist but I agree with many of the philosophies of Marxism.
