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?

Anarchists typically do not self identify as ultras. Those that tend to use that label are those on the Italian Left, Council Communists, Situationists, and Communizers.

Revisionists don't self-identify as revisionists either but they are nonetheless revisionist. Many ultra-leftists don't identify as ultra but they still are.

I don’t think most people on here understand that there are people who self identify as “ultra leftist.” Those people have arguments of varying strength that most folks here are completely ignorant of.
