Massive derail on the topic going on up there ^^^

Somebody once told me that your ancestors in your family pick out a few shiny souls from each generation and gently nudge them to become the scholars of the family history. Like their spirits pull on your strings a bit if you're the thoughtful type with an interest in history and what it means. It's woo but I dig it, if you're in to that sort of thing.

Maybe you can apply this to the history of the anarchist tradition too? Lots of folks have a hostile, dismissive reaction to history lessons and that's fine, they're just too dumb or lack the attention span or whatever haha

Anyway, aren't the "great anarchists" just the players in the richest stories?
