Does one have to be a perfect person to be an anarchist?
from Pensar en el margen via El Libertario, English translation by Anarchist News,
What is being anarchist?
by Laura Vicente
I would like to dismantle that idea that many people repeat that you cannot be an anarchist because that implies almost perfection in terms of the way of living and being. I am in favor of denying any transcendence to the term "anarchism" since it is the work of human beings. Anarchism is creation, or rather self-creation. The idealization of the term is always denied by reality since the human being is imperfect and contradictory.
