A few folks in central NC are starting an anarchist discussion group
to *explicitly* include what might (incorrectly, yet with some
justification) be called 'left anarchists' and 'right anarchists'
(sometimes called anarcho-capitalists or agorists).
The premise of this group is that the differences between these two
groups, while significant, are in fact smaller than between the
political 'left' and 'right' and any form of anarchy. The truth is
that we don't know what wide-scale real freedom from organized
oppression would look like. An unfortunate attitude of mistrust
between those who believe (loosely) that the use of capital is
organized oppression and those who believe (again, loosely) that any
attempt to curtail the accumulation and use of capital represents
organized oppression has kept us apart in a classic divide-and-conquer
mode. The terrible irony is that this isn't even necessarily a
deliberate divide-and-conquer - we have done it ourselves!
Our goal is to listen, and to share, and to not let vocabulary
differences keep us from understanding the underlying concepts of
freedom. If you would like to be a part of that, you are welcome!
Please leave your defensive attitude and you preconceptions behind!
First meeting next Sunday (14th) at 9am at the Caribou Coffee in Cary
at Kildaire Farm and Maynard. Feel free to invite others. Questions
can be directed to Susan Hogarth at hogarth@gmail.com
