Anarcho-Communism

Ancomball, full name Anarcho-Communismball, is an extreme oximoron since anarchism and communism are incompatible ideologies, generally culturally progressive, ideology inhabiting the bottom left corner of the political compass. He believes in the abolition of the state and all structures of capital, leading to a stateless, classless, and post-monetary society based on a gift economy and direct democracy. Some forms of Anarcho-Communism are heavily influenced by Egoismball and radical individualism, thinking Anarcho-Communism to be the best social system for the realization of individual freedom. Many AnComs view Anarcho-Communism as a way of reconciling the gap between the individual and society. His favorite weapon is the Molotov cocktail.

History
Anarcho-Communism first arose and developed out of radical socialist currents after the French Revolution. The works of Russian political theorist and activist Peter Kropotkin took importance later as Anarcho-Communist theory expanded and developed pro-organizational and insurrectionary anti-organizational sections. Anarcho-Communism has actually had places in history, the best-known examples of which are the anarchist territories during the Spanish Revolution.

Through the efforts and influence of the Spanish anarchists during the Spanish Revolution within the Spanish Civil War starting in 1936, Anarcho-Communism existed in most of Aragon, parts of the Levante and Andalusia as well as in the stronghold of anarchist Catalonia before being crushed by the combined forces of the Francoist Nationalists (the regime that won the war), Nationalist allies such as Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini and even Spanish Communist Party repression (backed by the Soviet Union) as well as economic and armaments blockades from the capitalist states and the Spanish Republic itself governed by the Republicans.

The Anarcho-Communist movement expanded much more heavily in the post-war era, with anarchist movements popping up all over continental Europe. The main movements were established both in Italy and France, where a sizeable following after the turmoil of the Second World War. In the post Fascist Italy, the Italian Anarchist Movement was formed right after the end of the war in 1945. It was based on "a Libertarian Party with anarchist theory and practice adapted to the new economic, political and social reality of post-war Italy, with an internationalist outlook and effective presence in the workplaces." On top of this, The International of Anarchist Federations (IAF/IFA) was founded during an international anarchist conference in Carrara in 1968 by the three existing European Anarchist federations of France (Fédération Anarchiste), Italy (Federazione Anarchica Italiana) and Spain (Federación Anarquista Ibérica) as well as the Bulgarian federation in French exile.

In contemporary times, Libertarian Communism was a socialist journal founded in 1974 and produced in part by members of the Socialist Party of Great Britain. The synthesist Italian Anarchist Federation and the platformist Federation of Anarchist Communists continue existing today in Italy but insurrectionary Anarchism continues to be relevant as the recent establishment of the Informal Anarchist Federation shows.

Personality and Behaviour
Ancomball is a very emotional individual. He has an extreme passion for revolution and has a high amount of empathy with oppressed groups. However, this can also make him difficult to disagree with. He is very concerned with the abolition of the state as well as private property and goes ballistic whenever any other ideology questions his resolve. Although being ideologically similar in economic terms to Socialism and Marxism, he doesn't hesitate to vehemently criticize them for being statist.

Ancomball is typically written as a rebellious addict teen that does not shower. He especially likes vandalism and destruction of private property and loves to take credit for what anarchoball does much to everyone's dismay.

Ancomball, freaks out every time any other ball dares criticize Marxismball & especially its descendants and loves to tell others to read a book despite never knowing what the buzzwords it uses actually mean so all other balls need to constantly be remindsing it.

Ancomball believes dictionaries are capitalist therefore evil.

Stylistic notes
Ancomball is often very aggressive in conversation, often making loud screeching noises after hearing capitalist, reactionary, or authoritarian comments. Conservatismball calls this "being triggered". He has never read theory but screams at everyone else to read it.

He's usually seen with a bat, a dildo or hood.
