¿Why don´t platfomists just join bigger marxist-leninist organizations available everywhere?

I say this because one of their main theorists George Fontenis had his organization called Federation Anarcho Communiste run for parliamentary elections. Also they emphasize "theorectical unity, tactical unity". And also because they are against individualism which anarcho-communists like Malatesta and Kropotkin say are a part of anarchism. And also because as their Dielo Truda Platform says "In the social domain all human history represents an uninterrupted chain of struggles waged by the working masses for their rights, liberty, and a better life — In the history of human society this class struggle has always been the primary factor which determined the form and structure of these societies" and so they have a marxist view of history.

Communism is not anarchy.
Anarchy is the lack of all government.
If I refuse to let other people say what to do with things I made with my own two hands, food I grew, a house I made..
it is taken from me by force.
Against my will.

My actions are governed by others.
No form of communism is anarchy.

If you're going to mark my answer down, please at least be educational for me by saying why or how it was in error. Thank you.

I love how your page says answers will never be deleted, yet you turn answers into comments and then "edit" them as you see fit, to basically have the same effect.

Haha, good to see ol' JaysThoughts complaints about how libertarian capitalists aren't allowed to answer questions on an anarchist Q&A site.

There's no such thing as "theoretical and tactical unity" between Anarchists and Marxists. Why should I become their ally, when we have a great example of failure of dictatorship of the proletariat, which is advocated by Marxism? Why should I help those Marxists, when I know what happened to Kronstadt rebels?
