An encounter with a transformative event or phenomena (a Kaiserreich scenario with a vital socialist movement) that leads to an imitative movement that takes up the imagery of the movement without the organic base or historical context that historical syndicalism once had.įirstly, I feel like there are definitely still organized syndicalists in Europe and that you are seriously over-estimating the amount of Kaiserreich-inspired actual syndies on the basis of unusual familiarity with a particular meme subculture whose members don't necessarily actually subscribe to that ideology (or any, tbh) and whose opus is not necessarily representative of a significant number of people even in the context of the subset of the population who subscribe to leftist ideologies.

And Im calling it a cargo cult for a particular reason - because that's how contemporary syndicalism has been structured. 'Worthless' is a value judgment you're imparting, not me.
