Basically the title. I'd like to meet some more anarchists around where I love and hopefully become more active with them and potentially organize. Just not sure how to start that so would helpful for some ideas!

"Anarchist seeking organization" is my favorite find from All today.

From An Anarchist FAQ:

Anarchists are well aware of the importance of building organisations. Organisations allow those within them to multiply their strength and activity, becoming the means by which an individual can see their ideas, hopes and dreams realised. This is as true for getting the anarchist message across as for building a home, running a hospital or creating some useful product. Anarchists support two types of organisation -- organisations of anarchists and popular organisations which are not made up exclusively of anarchists such as industrial unions, co-operatives and community assemblies.

I.e. there is absolutely nothing contradictory about anarchists seeking organizations.

We're against hierarchy, not organising.

Yes, it is nice to see a comrade seeking community

Anarchists oppose hieghachy not organizing

Right?!!! I appreciate the irony.

Perhaps it is time to brush up on what an anarchist might actually believe. I have a suspicion your definition was formed by cartoons.

TVTropes, of all places, has a pretty good and accessible explainer

It just sounds like a polity to organize socially without a specific purpose. The idea in and of itself is helpful to promote social and mental well-being.

The irony of being an egoist?
