'Gee, that sounds remarkably self-sustaining. I guess we can look up FAI and find something to inspect today.'
George Orwell lived in Anarchist Catalonia and said it worked well, not perfectly, but well. The Communists, sponsered by Stalin, got hold of all the propoganda and aimed it against the Socialists and Anarchists, helped says Orwell, by the lack of journalists within 100 miles who could actually get the truth to the population, so obviously FOXIUS EL NEWSIUS did there bit and turned the people against the Anarchists.Stalin supplied guns and much more, building his numbers and they purged the Anarchists and Socialists, almost all of the success againt Franco up until then was down to the Anarchists.
Self sustaining, not so sure, but it worked for a few years until Stalin stuck his fat Georgian boot in.
