Anarcho-communists seek to build a society based upon a decentralised federation of autonomous communes and a moneyless 'gift economy'. The movement first emerged in the late 19th century and has had a large influence particularly in Spain, Italy and Russia. Key thikers include Peter Kropotkin and Errico Malatesta.

Not surprised; I favor worker's rights, but am neither a Communist nor Laissez-faire Capitalist.

Anarcho-capitalism is perhaps more closely linked the libertarian tradition than anarchism as it favours a free market and a stateless society. Private businesses would replace the functions of the state. This form of anarchism is largely an American phenomenon and first emerged in the 1950s (although it arguably has its roots in 19th century individualist anarchism and classical liberalism). Key thinkers include Murray Rothbard.

Anarcha-feminists put a strong emphasis on the importance of patriachy, arguing that all forms of hierachy can be traced back to man's domination over woman. Although associated with the 1960s, the movement has its roots in the theories of Emma Goldman and Voltarine DeCleyre.

Speaking of myself however, I would describe myself more generally as being an anarchist without adjectives, and more specificly as being a Communalist.

It seems that I alone have had the purity needed to reject Anarcho-capitalism in its entirety. The rest of you lefties are phonies. I'm PoFo's one true leftist.

Agreed, that was sort of my point, since some of the fellow lefties got slightly noticeable scores for the Anarcho-capitalist portion of their results. I was facetiously implying that people who got higher than 0% for the Anarcho-capitalist portion aren't true leftists. And there was a slight nod to the 'one true leftist' meme featuring Norapture; I was just teasing.

I am of the thought that Anarcho-capitalism is a contradiction onto itself. One cannot possibly claim to be an anarchist while supporting the extreme forms of tyrannies that capitalism entails.

Capitalism was, and still is, deeply involved with corrupt government (as if there is any other kind...). Anarcho-capitalists recognise the deeply corrupting nature of that association, and assign many of the historic failings of capitalism to that association.

By freeing itself from government, however, capitalism in its pure, non-governmental (and thus, semantically, "anarchic") form would be associated with unprecedented human progress, innovation and flourishing, not "tyranny".

Conversely, many of the ideas of left-anarchists involve the creation of manifest tyrannies. In a typical scenario, an individual as completely at the mercy of his co-workers, co-consumers and neighbours. Since collectives are invariably captured by popular demagogues, vote brokers and the socially-influential, tyranny is all-but-guaranteed whenever individuals are so comprehensively-restricted to acting in conformity with established groups.

Weird results considering I'm a sorta conservative Muslim Stalinist. But then I'm also a queer and a drug user.

I should have added a couple extra smilies, as I wasn't really as serious as my snarling face implied. I am disappointed in my 25% AN-Cap score, trust me.

You. Brain. Good. Work. Good.

Let's not forget that they get to Anarchism from a totally different set of logic points than leftist Anarchists ever will. That difference matters as they are anarchist, to our way of thinking, in incorrect name only. Sort of in the way Rush Limbaugh has incorrectly named US liberals and conservatives and gotten everyone who didn't know any better to go along with it. Oh wait, that's how the An-Caps got here too!

Anarcho-Primitivism questions not only the state and capitalism but all the institutions which make up 'civilisation' including technology. It is perhaps the most recent development within the anarchist movement and key thinkers include John Zerzan.

Oh, for the love of God.

Just as well I'm not an anarchist, then. I guess this was probably my inherent "fuck the world" nihilism coming out.
