        So then we were also talking about Marxism. Even if you were doing so from an anarchist perspective, for any Marxist reading your comment it comes across as absurd. Marxists have never claimed to be getting rid of any and all hierarchies, and to judge Marxism by its ability to do so is like judging a fish on its ability to climb a tree.

          No I’m not discussing that.

          I direct you back to my previous statement:

          question whether what you’re reading is absurd in context. If it is, it’s possible it’s sarcasm.

          It’s feeling less undue with each reply 🙃
