        Nah anarchists also fall within the “capitalism is working as intended and must be destroyed” camp. They just have different ways of doing it.

  Liberals are, to quote Phil Ochs: “ten degrees to the left of center in the good times, ten degrees to the right of center when it affects them personally”
