Hey all, I'm hoping this is the right comm for this kind of post. I'm really interested what brought my fellow lemmings to anarchism (or just radical politics in general). Was is a youtube video? A book? A conversation IRL or on the internet? For me personally it was a friend IRL who introduced me to an local anarchist collective.

Because fuck authority. Governments have always existed to oppress the masses, and and also take away power from people so they don't govern themselves
