Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6Any of the anarchists I know are very much involved in the blockades. Strange assertion.
loads of the non WSM anarchists are not involved whatsoever with the bin tax campaign.
And some haven't been, which is fair enough. Not everybody has to have the same priorities.
Maybe cos there are far more important things to be demonstrating about? Iraq ,government corruption, abuse in the catholic church...

Now that is a totally ridiculous statement! Do you have a full list of all the anarchists in Dublin? And have you got a little asterisk beside the names of the WSM or non-WSM ones?
I suspect the meeting blurb is being 'controversal' in order to encourage people to go and discuss the issue.
The main dividing line in terms of the anarchist movement in Dublin would be one of age rather then anything else. All of the anarchists I know who are older then about 25 have been involved (some very intensely). Most of those below this age have only been involved in the RTS hookup or the other big marches.
Reasons for this
1. Political (which is what the meeting concentrates on)
2. Living with parents/short term rent - you are less likely to be involved if your not the one being billed or you've only just moved into an area. Your more likely to be involved if your living in your own place and know your neighboors etc.
