One of the nastiest side comment I’ve read of Bakunin was from Walter Kaufmann. He said Hegel would have been unimpressed with Marx and Bakunin in the way they used his ideas. On the other hand, German thought has brought some of the best but also some of the worst ideas we are living with today.
Kaufman wasn't entirely wrong in that.Not sure Hegel would be pleased with anyone's use of his ideas, being how he was. I agree with you about German thought. My most favorite and least favorite thinkers are German.
Yes, it is the podcast version of my article, I stopped putting links on my RUclips videos to Medium pages because RUclips viewers don't click on links. But yes, here is the link tho the Medium article: medium.com/@dgilesphilosopher/the-fundamental-contradictions-in-anarchism-and-libertarianism-3da675c6a17f

Good criticisms of two wacko ideas.
Thanks. I apply philosophy to anything and everything.
is this your essay or did you plagiarize it off medium? I ask because there's no link to medium in your channel's about page or the video description

The Medium article links to this audio version. That's how I found it.
