Thoughts on individualist anarchism/anarcho-individualism?
Not a fan, in regards to the Stirner/Egoist stuff.

Well, you seem to be talking about the Tuckerites. Is that right? Because I wouldn’t deem, for instance, L. Spooner an egoist whatsoever.

Great perspective on the current state of Vietnam, from a Vietnamese anarchist.

MulderFor anarchists the state, government, means "the delegation of power, that is the abdication of initiative and sovereignty of all into the hands of a few." Malatesta, Anarchy, p. 41 For Marxists, the state is "an organ of class rule, an organ for the oppression of one class by another." Lenin, Op. Cit., p. 274 That these definitions are in conflict is clear and unless this difference is made explicit, anarchist opposition to the "dictatorship of the proletariat" cannot be clearly understood.
The idea that anarchists, by rejecting the "dictatorship of the proletariat," also reject defending a revolution is false. We do not equate the "dictatorship of the proletariat" with the need to defend a revolution or expropriating the capitalist class, ending capitalism and building socialism.

FlowerAll of their arguments boil down to "but people are too stupid to govern themselves". Well then why do these socialists think that communism is the good idea? All anarchism proposes is cutting through the BS.
Those the same type of people 300 years ago that said monarchy will always be a thing because people just need a leader who decides what's best for them or else chaos would ensue. People are too dependent to realize that they can actually do it themselves and that's the toxic thing about government. It finds excuses to justify why it has to be in our lives. - Sep 7, 2021

Anarchism is an easier sell to people in real life because real people are rightfully terrified of living under Stalinism lol

I don't know about that. Most people don't grasp what Anarchism actually is.
Including people proclaimed as politically educated.

One of the most riveting and darkest pieces of anarchist literature written recently, and it's quite eerie considering it's from 2011 and its relevance now
Here is a criticism to it, which is also interesting to check out: anarchistnews.org/content/critique-desert
