They treated with the Nazis precisely because it postponed the threat.
And as freagle said, they tried to fight the Nazis first but couldn’t do so without western cooperation, which was refused. Delaying until ready to fight alone was the second best option.


What are you talking about?


Any recommended reading that isn’t The Gulag Archipelago?


What, is the US government secretly promoting Marxism-Leninism or something? Big if true.


Ending the Holocaust was pretty cool of him

Black Panthers, Venceremos, Weather Underground, Symbionese Liberation Army
The only really meaningful movement listed here are the Black Panthers, right? And they built off severe racial discrimination that wasn’t present in the same way in Britain.
I also wonder if the stronger welfare state in the UK since the war has discouraged radicalism?


There was also some weird claim if it being fascist because the Russian woman was blonde.

‘Libertarian’ was practically synonymous with (left-wing) anarchism before rightists co-opted it.


What were Durruti or Makhno if not leaders? Or Montseny or Garcia Oliver?


Anarchism isn’t anti-leader, as evidenced if by nothing else but the host of well-known and well-respected anarchist leaders throughout history.
Anarchism is against unjust hierarchy, but consensual leadership is absolutely not contradictory to the ideology. You’re always going to need good people to lead movements, to organise and to manage, society would be chaos otherwise. Under anarchism, those people would just be legitimately democratically chosen, and legitimately held accountable by the people.


Why would you not want good leaders?
