I was attracted to these boards because I am horribly bored at work, and the study group/discussion on left-communism made me want to stick around for a bit.

I identify as an anarchist and I lean towards the insurrectionalist current, but I appreciate the work of the more organizationalist currents, especially NEFAC. I'm sympathetic towards the milder aspects of anarcho-primitivism and individualist anarchism, but I'm more interested in working with with folks that emphasize class & work issues.

To be honest, most Leftist discussion and bickering makes me roll my eyes. I firmly agree with the idea that revolutionary theory should be firmly based on everyday life and experiences, not revolutionary manuals and archaic, irrelevant theory (though I suppose most leftists agree with the latter, we'll likely disagree as to what is relevant...).

Do you know the user Organic Revolution? He's a anarchist from Chitown.

Hey, I'm about 70 miles north of you, in Wisconsin. We should talk about working on stuff together this summer or something.

I'm like 100 miles west of you and I'm (somewhat) ideologically close to you.
