A place to ask questions of Lemmygrad's best and brightest

A couple of questions because I'm still uneducated on these things:

  • Why do anarchists hate Marxists?
  • Are anarchists and ultras the same thing?
  • Are Trotskyists ultras and do they dislike Marxists?
  • What are the differences between Trotskyists, Maoists and Hoxhaists? Are any of them comrades?

The disregard for actually existing socialist states by the compatible left is what bothers me the most. They are usually always in western countries and are therefore in favour of the status quo whether directly or indirectly.

This is a very important point. Others have already said about what distinguishes all those different tendencies from each other, but what they largely have in common is the rejection of Actually Existing Socialism.

Yeah I've noticed this common trend among them of being against AES.
