Sorry, B., but many anarchists agree with me. This has been a subject of debate among anarchists for many years, but I think I might be in the majority on this one. This is one of those perennial discussions whenever anarchists get together. I'm simply stating my view that anarchism is not part of leftism (except in a very loose, colloquial sense).
