frequently puritanical don't take into consideration that anarchism was very young for a long time. maybe it's not true any more, but the ideological rigor that people are attempting could come from both a) that anarchy doesn't have a single voice to refer back to, leaving it open to a wider variation, meaning that people hold on tighter to what they think is important, and b) that many anarchists are discovering who they are at the same time, so they're also more prone to hold tightly to distinguish themselve from whoever they're not.
does that make sense?
