To place anarchy in the left wing of politics and capital is to dismiss
an entire history of people across the globe in favor of the theories of
a handful of dead white men.
“The illusion of the political left and right, or left and right of
capital, is a Eurocentric construct coming out of pre-revolutionary
France. In legislative bodies, the aristocracy would sit to the right of
the speaker and the capitalist class, or bourgeoisie (then referred to
as “common” people) would sit to the left. Of course now the bourgeoisie
is considered to be the political right, and the political left, just
as before, dishonestly portrays itself as the vanguard of “the common
people…The left is a white construct, by whites, for whites. Leftism is
simply an ideology and a method of organizing the political, economic,
and social order of white society. Prior to European invasion of places
such as Africa and “the Americas” there was no left or right of capital.
The political left and right are Eurocentric means to Eurocentric ends.
They are a false dichotomy that serves to limit discourse and confine
us all to a civilized, Eurocentric paradigm.” -Bison Live Oak
