Hey everyone! The fourth and final part of The State is Counter-Revolutionary has been uploaded to the channel! I hope you all enjoy. This series has been a huge project. I also compiled the script for the series into a single essay, which I have uploaded to anarchistlibrary.org and it is currently being reviewed. https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/anark-the-state-is-counter-revolutionary

Now it's time to move on to another huge (but less huge project). The next video's script is already in the works and will be a guidebook to prefigurative revolutionary activity.

"Left-Wing" Authoritarianism: An Infantile Disorder | The State is Counter-Revolutionary (Part 4)

In this fourth and final part of the video series The State is Counter-Revolutionary, we are going to analyze two primary questions: why does the state always act as a force of counter-revolutionary self-sabotage? And how do authoritarian leftists justify their continued faith in state structures, given the clear betrayals of our liberatory project?
