Anarchists are (and have historically been) sticklers when it comes to contesting coercive power and/or imposed authority, and so there has almost always been consensus amongst Liberals, Conservatives, authoritarian “Leftists,” and fascists in trying to stifle Anarchist activity.
What authoritarian forces want is for power vacuums to emerge and to be exploited in a contest for centralized domination.
And no matter how few in numbers these forces may be compared to the general population, they are extremely determined to use discontent to their advantage.

What is becoming more clear is that there is no more room for petty sectarianism between anti-authoritarian forces on the “Left” (this means those who have remained committed to anti-authoritarian principles and practice).
It is well past time to strengthen networks and prepare.
