> Most anarchists consider themselves far-left.

"Far-left" is a derogatory term, a synonym for "left-wing extremist". Nobody considers themselves an extremist. I've noticed that my own views seem to be to the left of any mainstream political party here. For me, that just means that all the mainstream parties are right-wing.

I reserve the term "far-left" for hyper-dogmatic communist revolutionaries who don't object to using violence for political ends.
