Class politics and anti-authoritarianism are a false choice to refuse outright
Evidence
We don’t have to choose between class politics and anti-authoritarianism any more than we need to choose between Gramsci, Deleuze or Guattari, between a hegemonic approach and a politics of desire. In fact, if we are to succeed, we must absolutely refuse this false choice. Class politics must be renewed and resumed, not simply revived as if nothing has happened. — Mark Fisher (edited by Darren Ambrose), K-Punk, 1910
