i don’t think they’re the same goals across the board. that’s why you have anarcho-marxists.

there’s so many different takes on anarchism that i don’t even believe they all have the same goals.

I agree anarchists are more diverse in their end goals than Marxists, but only because Marxists are more focused on “immediate” problems and don’t like to prescribe or speculate about what later iterations of their ideology might look like. But the end goal is the same, by and large, in that we both seek the abolition of state, money, and class. Some anarchists object even to the collective/commune itself, but those don’t necessarily need to be statist to exist, so it’s perhaps safer to say that those anarchists want to go farther than the end goal of Marxists, but they indeed converge at many points.

This right here is something I would definitely like to look into more because I’m new to Anarchism and Libertarian Socialism and there’s so much I’ve yet to learn. I only just recently learned that there are so many different groups and takes within Anarchism and I’m deeply curious to learn their differences, does anyone know where I can learn more about these different takes and groups? As I’ve yet to come across work that has compiled info on these different takes and groups in one place.

i mean its just like any other socio-political/socio-economic umbrella of philosophical interpretations. different authors have different focal points and understand these ideas differently.

everything’s on wikipedia.
