What was the 'Syndical Commune Family Rules' and how is it relevant today?

By Black-Red Wave a founding member of the once innovative Anarcho Syndical Family.  

The Anarcho Syndical Family based its philosophy on the Syndical Commune Family Rules written on August 1, 2015 by myself and other Anarcho Syndicalists which must remain anonymous, there must be no ego to this constitutional pamphlet. The issue arises that there are different Anarchist tendencies, some of these tendencies deviate more than others. The Anarcho Syndical Family was founded upon the idea that "Anarchism without adjectives" undoes the very essence of Anarchism. The Anarcho Syndical Family was an Anarcho Syndicalist Community in Arizona found in the Cities of Phoenix, Glendale, Avondale and Peoria. We held to a squatter Anarcho Syndicalist philosophy.  

The Anarcho Syndical Family was intended to reconstitute the integrity of Anarchism.
The conclusion was Correct Anarcho Syndicalism separate from Anarcho Communism which was founded upon Emma Goldman and Rudolf Rocker. Furthermore it has been apparent to many Anarchists that debates between Anarchists and Marxist-Leninists usually end with the Anarchists loosing these debates. One of the other complications was that Johann Rudolf Rocker (March 25, 1873 – September 19, 1958) considered himself an "Anarchist without adjectives" yet it has been apparent in many Anarchist circles that in order to preserve the legacy of Rudolf Rocker, criticism of Rudolf Rocker is necessary. The Anarcho Syndical Family rejected Mutualism yet had the capacity to utilize the work of Pierre-Joseph Proudhon. The Anarcho Syndical Family refused any cooperation with Mutualists. The Anarcho Syndical Family never objected to working with Anarcho Collectivists and Anarcho Communists, yet the Anarcho Syndical Family considered both Anarcho Collectivism and Anarcho Communism to be lacking in imagination and practical application of theory.

Anarcho Pacifism, Christian Anarchism and Jewish Anarchism also contradicted the Anarcho Syndical Family. The ideological framework that originates from Fraye Arbeter Shtime spawned off a series of Anarchist tenancies that were ideologically Jewish and typically problematic. Anarchist tenancies that are ideologically Jewish degenerate into Anarcho Zionism and Diaspora Zionism. There are of course Jews which are Anarchist, but ideological claims for Jewish Nationality do not mix with Anarchism. Is there a difference between Nation and State? Yes of course, but there is no difference between State and Country, this Demarchist theory by Danson and his successors is not true. There is only a difference between Territory and Country. We reject Rojava as the dangerous chauvinistic result of Murray Bookchin's ideology. We also reject Ba'athism. We reject Arab Nationalism, it is up to the Arabs themselves to de-colonize themselves from the Western-based Nationalism imposed upon them. Rojava is racist Kurdish Nationalism and even suicidal Nationalism. We denounce the YPJ as posers with the mere purpose of dragging the name of Anarchism through the mud. Rojava is not an improvement over the CNT. The CNT only failed because of a lack of better organizing, other than this one issue (which turned out to be a big issue) it was better than the USSR. Communal Confederations or even Soviets without the impositions of Country/State needs to be the endgame goal. But we must be honest the CNT suffered from lack of organizations to fight back against Fascism. We are not happy with Soviet innovation upon the CNT, yet in order to make a correct historical denunciation for this we need to recognize why the Soviets had panicked enough to invade. We do not oppose National-Cultural Autonomy, but Anarchists already use National-Cultural Autonomy in rebellion, the Jewish Nation has to fight for National-Cultural Autonomy because the Jewish Nation is subjected to the ills of Eurochauvinistic Social Norms. Anarchists are not behind Bundists, Bundists are behind Anarchists.

However, we are happy to work with the Bundist Movement. The Bundists have a fight much more terrifying than ours that they must fight. So let us go over the Note from abraham Weizfeld PhD to the Arizona Rebellion because other than Noam Chomsky he is the only academic we respect at all.

WEIZFELD This set of principles in Anarchist thought is interesting and compelling. The Panther theorist Newton used a term which corresponds to the first Anarchist revolution in Paris 1870 when the Paris Commune was operating for 3 months before being crushed by the Royalist troops in collaboration with the Prussian-German State occupation. That term is communalism. The distinction with Communism is that there is no State, which is the fatal flaw of Communism.

Thank you. We also embrace a multipolar World. 

WEIZFELD Re Constitution #4  Where it is stated, "Christian Anarchism and Jewish Anarchism are ... ideologies of false consciousness. Anyone maintaining Jewishness should be expelled and encouraged to further the causes of restoring the Jewish Bund" the fundamental error of equating Christianity and Jewishness since the Jewish political culture is more than a religious sect. We are a People-Nation with a history of Judaism as a philosophy and an inter-national social structure. We exist as a minority nationality, 'A Nation within a Nation'. For us to be a Bundist and an Anarchist is no contradiction.

There is a serious contradiction between being a Bundist and an Anarchist because being Bundist is Demarchist if anything. I understand that Fredrick Danson to have been the one to have written a book called National Cultural Autonomy, this book is being published in parts or fully has already, it is hard to find. But I knew Fredrick Danson, in fact it was through him that I learned about you. Trust me Bundists are Demarchists not Anarchists. No sectarianism, just letting you know that you are mistaken. 

WEIZFELD #5. Murray Bookchin had a personal character that contradicted Anarchist rejection of imposed authority. At the conclusion of a meeting of the Black Rose collective here in Montréal where i reported on my planned voyage to Libya, Bookchin pointed to me a ordered me not to go there to meet Kadhafi. I was shocked and more so when I heard that Bookshin was pro-Zionist. Some Anarchist tendencies keep up their acquiescence to the Zionist State until as late as 1982.

I deeply appreciate this information, a synthesis between Murray Bookchin the Anti-Anarchist BIGOT and Kadhafi the Green Patriotic Demarchist may be a solution it self, maybe. The compelling idea from Murray Bookchin is dialectical naturalism, other than that he was a counter-revolutionary racist and Zionist and Americanist. 

WEIZFELD #7 The difference between the Trotskyists and Troskyism is that the latter actually knows what the Permanent Revolution is. This theory does not originate with Trotsky/Bronstein but is more so an Anarchist theory discussed in various ways previously by writers including Marx. Permanent Revolution taken to its logical conclusion rejects the State as a dominating superstructure over Civil Society, as well as never-ending revolutionary innovation.

This may be true, but then all you have to do is take the correct tendencies of Trotskyism away from Trotskyism and give it to Anarchism, Maoism, Bundism and maybe even Third Worldism. We both utilize Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, however I reject Mutualism and so should you, it is outdated. Consider this, take from Trotsky and Proudhon what is needed and throw away the rest. Both Trotskyism and Mutualism fail as ideologies. Trotskyism is ideologically sectarian, the Fourth International must expel Trotskyists because Trotskyism holds historical revisionism worse than Karl Marx and sectarianism is part of Trotskyism. Mutualism is dogmatic ideology of the outdated way of making mutual markets, as you are Bundist making you Demarchist you can never tolerate this. Bundists are Demarchists and Demarchists put Methodology over Ideology. Trotskyism is anti-Reciprocity unironically. Mutualism is anti-Reciprocity ironically (very ironic).

WEIZFELD #8. 'Dialectical and Historical Materialism' was formulated during the period of classical science when causality was the methodology built upon Hegelianism. This introduced a formal logic into Historical Materialism which assumed a historical linear-periodisation of continual progress along similar lines in every social development from Capitalism to Socialism. However history does not necessarily progress as Rosa Luxemburg pointed out the danger of regression to "Barbarism" which should actually be called Fascism. In addition other Third-World countries may just skip Capitalism to become Socialist. This Permanent Revolution contradicts the formalism in Historical Materialism.

Dialectical and Historical Materialism does not have to be linear, we learned this from Hannah Toff, Marvin Eliyahu, Uri Adiah, Mariam Emesberg and Isaiah P. Kamatsein. In many ways these five proved this to not only us, they proved it to Dona Newman and Comrade Net Ben-Yahushua. What needs to happen is a synthesizing between the concepts of Permanent Revolution and Historical Materialism. This can be done and has been done. You have been deprived of the greater conversation in Arizona, it so obvious. The glorious arguments we had with the Leninists, Maoists and Bundists. We are very unhappy that you never came out to see us. Dona and Net both made it sound like you were going to do so at some point. We however understand that this will never happen. The Maoists are the most hurt by this though, especially Panther C.O.D.E because they wanted you to help them revolutionize everything. It is possible to synthesize Dialectical and Historical Materialism from Hegelianism entirely, this allowed us to win arguments against the Leninists, sometimes even against Maoists (Maoists are very hard to win debates against) but this was what we were missing, it does not have to be linear. Bundists and Anarchists alike could for once outdo Marxism if we just left our echochambers. 

WEIZFELD #9. 'Direct Democracy' was the motto of the Jamahiriyia in Libya following the Green Book but it too failed due to the lack of a Constitutional Assembly that was promised by Kadhafi in 1972 but was never formed to write the new Constitution for its Civil Society.

The weakness of the CNT was lack of organization. The weakness of the USSR was the Bureaucracy. The weakness of the Jamahiriyia in Libya was that Kadhafi was so terrorized by Ronald Reagan that he betrayed his own revolution out of fear. In our view Kadhafi went down hill from there. His murder was very tragic. The World lost the Lion of Africa and now that African Union is no better than the European Union.

WEIZFELD #10. "Our own Militias must stand in waiting to protect our Communities" is an existential necessity.

We are all guilty of treason now according to the State. We have no choice but to Rebel. 

WEIZFELD For the United Front of revolutionary socialist forces to oppose the counter-revolutionary reaction to the ongoing revolutionary process. Despite any disagreements there is a fundamental collective interest that fascism must fail this time. For this reason we need the United Front with the Sanders socialist campaign but with critical support. As for personally voting itself, that is largely irrelevant.

Why do we need to back Bernie Sanders, why can't we back ourselves is overthrowing the United States of America? The United States of America will never give up its hegemonic role even with a Sanders presidency. But a United Front against Fascism is a major necessity, Jason Unruhe a Third Worldist reached out to us and this has pissed off fake Anarchists and fake Marxists but this has empowered real Anarchists and real Marxists. If you have a plan to get the DSA on board, okay sure. But the DSA is not Socialist they are just greedy Social Democrats. Sanders himself is a Zionist. It is good that he opposes AIPAC but he is still a Zionist. If there is a plan to radicalize the DSA then sure, if not there is no point.

WEIZFELD People in the USA are facing a great challenge and its oppositions' efforts will weigh heavily in the determination for the coming epoch. 

The odds are against us, we blame Nonviolence and Faith in Nonviolence. We even blame other Anarchists like Noam Chomsky (we deeply respect him but he pacified too many people). We blame people like Amy Goodman on Democracy Now! for misleading so many of us on several issues. YEAH Jews need to be Bundists, you guys become tools without the Bund, even you do. We blame Chris Hedges a friend of Noam Chomsky too, he will not even condemn the White Helmets, that is why we know he is compromised. We reject your friend Stanley Heller and we consider him to be your handler, otherwise he would tell the truth more. That is not Antisemitism that is a true and fair criticism. You need to get better representation, a win for you would be a win for us all. Our only chance is open defiance. Gun Control is Right-Wing, this needs to be a United Front Slogan.
GUN CONTROL IS RIGHT WING.
