Background:

The idea of this meeting arose during discussion amongst several anarchists from Sydney – all of whom desire todevelop class struggle theory, tools and practice as a tendency within the anarchist movement and the working class as a whole.

It is hoped that the meeting will serve as an opportunity for Sydney anarchist communists (and other class struggle anarchists) to come together to discuss and clarify our ideas, with the overall intention of forming a group, whose aim at this point is to develop and spread the ideas of class struggle anarchism (within the anarchist movement and the working class a whole) and most importantly, to contribute in a meaningful way to the end of class society.

What is anarchist communism?

As anarchist communists we support a social revolution, made by the working class, to abolish the system of wage labour, capitalism, the state and all other forms of hierarchy and domination. In their place we envision the creation of a society based upon the principals of liberty, equality and solidarity – realised in practice through a horizontal network of free and voluntary associations.

When & Where? On 13th of April at 1pm there will be a meeting held at Jura Books (440 Parramatta Road, Petersham – 5 minutes walk from Petersham station) to discuss the formation of a Sydney anarchist communist group.

Thanks :D

And it turns out Mark was not being so hostile, but rather giving us some advice - the funny thing is his second reply represents a POV of the anarchist left in oz that is very close to the sort of thing, the sort of discussion, that lead to the idea of an anarchist communist group in sydney. It's just the way Mark frames his critcisms can seem quite abrasive, but i do think he's on to something.

Damn, I wish I lived in Sydney. I would go to these meetings. There aren't any anarchists over where I live. Just democrats, republicans, and a small group of nazis that write on the bathroom wall... and then I vandalize their vandalism.

But tell me, what are anarchist meetings like?
