We must allow this process of disintegration among the anarchists to mature and become ripe. . . . It goes without saying, however, that the semi-anarchist elements can and should be tolerated only within certain limits. In Germany we tolerated them for quite a long time. The Third Congress of the Communist International submitted an ultimatum to them. . . . Since anarchism rejects the principles of scientific socialism, of Marxism-Leninism, it can play only a negative, reactionary, disruptive role in the struggle for socialism.
Anarchism thus represents a reactionary anti-socialist political trend.
