It is an attempt at a crowdsourced alternative to An Anarchist FAQ, mainly aiming to eliminate any biases by having multiple people write this work.

I should have clarified in the post; this is not my opinion, nor am I a participant of Raddle. I just found a cool link that I wanted to share.

According to Raddle,

[An Anarchist FAQ] is written entirely by one man and often pushes a strong Bookchinite perspective, to the point of smearing the anarchist currents that Bookchin rallied against

Again, I don't have much of an opinion on this, as I don't know how much of it is true. I haven't read AFAQ in much detail: I preferred the digestibility of Peter Gelderloos' Anarchy Works.

Thank you for clarifying. That helps a great deal! :)

Don't believe every bitter and resentful internet commenter. They're talking about 8 year old drama where I used several accounts to speak out against the politics and behavior of other users (almost all of them tankies) and then told them I did it and apologized. Hardly 'caught red handed'.

[–] masquenox@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 months ago (2 children)

almost all of them tankie

Right, right, Ziq... all the people you hounded and harrassed off r/anarchism (including quite a few of the mods) is now just conveniently tankies (according to you).

I see you still rail against tankies while using the very same underhanded tactics they do... you haven't changed one spot on your coat, have you?

[–] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 4 months ago

"Anarchists against me aren't anarchists, they're tankies."

Ziq is a liberal confirmed.

[–] ChanceHappening@lemmy.dbzer0.com -2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Holey moley give it a rest. It had nothing to do with reddit, it was literally Marxist-Leninists who were banning anarchists from raddle forums.

[–] masquenox@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Still the same old liar, eh Ziq?

You know what? I'm kinda glad you didn't change - you're still the same old breathing and talking reminder of why we should always be vigilant against raging narcissists hiding under leftist camouflage.

It's not just the tankies and the liberals we should be guarding against - after all... the likes of you are still out there, too.

What's the matter, Ziq? Don't like your past catching up to you?

If I were you I wouldn't like it either.

It's easy, Ziq. Just click on the three little vertical dots underneath this comment, and the option will reveal itself to you in the drop-down menu.

Just remember to do the same for all your sock-puppet accounts, too.

[–] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Ziq claims to have left this place, wanna place bets until their sockpuppets pop up?

[–] masquenox@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Has anyone actually managed to figure out why Ziq is like that?

[–] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 4 months ago

No clue personally, I'm sure we'll never find out.

[–] jaijai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

we don't really need to figure it out. they'll just continue as they are -- stuck in the same sad cycle for life, reaping what they've sown.

[–] ChanceHappening@lemmy.dbzer0.com -3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

So you'll buddy up with a SA settler in a sad attempt to inflict damage on me after spending years trying to destroy someone else for being a SA settler? That's extremely unprincipled.

[–] jaijai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

You must be talking about yourself. Aren't you still buddied up with a settler who's been scamming colonized people on reddit and raddle (and irl) for years? Oh wait, they're just doing what you've been doing for decades. Birds of a feather......as they say.

[–] masquenox@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Aren’t you still buddied up with a settler who’s been scamming colonized people on reddit and raddle (and more) for years?

Wtf? What is that all about?

[–] jaijai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Let's see if ziq decides it's worth it to go down that road. One thing's for sure, there's no use being afraid of these creeps. I got over that so SO long ago.

[–] jaijai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

changed my mind. ziq's settler buddy (and former partner in crime over at raddle, tequila wolf) was basically pulling the same shit with alts that ziq was pulling on radde, but it was even worse. meaning they were not only using dozens of alts on raddle, but also in other online leftist spaces, including those created for formerly colonized people. What this means is that tequila wolf is the kind of settler who continues being and behaving like a colonizer, and should be dealt with as such.

so ZIQ, just so its clear for you


the problem with your anarchomissionary settler buddy isn't that they were born a settler, it's that they relate to being a settler by operating like a colonizer. that's the difference between someone like masquenox and the pos you continue to pine for and defend. what's super hilarious about you throwing pity parties for them is that your settler bud was the first to throw you under the bus when you got caught with hundreds of alts. they forced you to "come clean" and take public accountability, feigning horror , claiming moral superiority and above all, their own innocence. they pretended to be SO much better than you when they were actually just doing the same shit the whole fucking time. what a sad little opportunistic fuck your settler bud is. almost as sad as you. LOL.

nor am I a participant of Raddle.

Nothing about Raddle, or it's creator, deserves any kind of trust.

It's maker, Ziq, was caught red-handed on Raddle using an army of sock-puppet accounts to harass participants and manipulate narratives on Raddle itself - a method they were suspected of using to disrupt and hijack r/anarchism way back when.

They are literally a text-book example of a bad actor.

[–] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 4 months ago

Yep, they're not exactly trust worthy. It's why I like db0 over Raddle.

Raddle has like 10% of the users and half of them are Ziq's alts.

I started the new FAQ, I can provide direct quotes from the old FAQ to outline its biases if you want. But biases aren't really a problem, that's to be expected in any project, the problem is the vicious smears it directs at anarchists of different schools, and the way it's tries to assert monolithic thought onto anarchy, especially the author's ideology of majoritarianism which he borrows from Murray Bookchin's theories.
