Do anarchists still exist anymore? I know it's a fun name tag to wear, but I'm finding very few actual "practicing" anarchist organizations.

YMMV depending on country. In the US you can find at least a handful of named anarchist organizations in any given state. Many anarchist or libertarian organizations keep it on the DL for a multitude of reasons. You may have better luck finding groups under the monikers of communalist, x or y federation, social ecologist, or just plain ole socialist. Mutual aid networks, food not bombs chapters, and IWW chapters are other spaces a lot of anarchists occupy. Many anarchists still stick to affinity groups and the like as well so, while they may be out there and active, it's likely you'll never hear about them. Further muddying the waters there's also the concept of social insertion where anarchists support local movements and encourage (but don't attempt to force) the popular movement to develop in a more libertarian fashion. Some big names in the libertarian milieu in the US are the symbiosis network and moneyless society. The black rose anarchist federation is another one I've seen around.

That said, it's still hard to find other anarchists in a lot of areas. I've been on the hunt for a while and haven't had any luck in my area. The closest I have is a food not bombs chapter in my city but they're all a bunch of zionist soc-dems. 🤷 They do good work but I don't want to be the only anarchist in the group haha. I'll be handing out zines and fliers at the pride parade in a few weeks in the hopes of starting a reading group and hopefully an explicitly anarchist org in my city

That's news to me.

I may have worded that weird. Just to be clear, food not bombs in general isn't a social democrat org. The chapter in my town just so happens to be run by them. More often than not, you'll find at least a handful of anarchists in the mix at a food not bombs group

That would make sense, all things considered. My Houston chapter is constantly butting heads with the police, because the city doesn't want them distributing food to anyone in town.
