hey maybe they did. any anarchist & communist with a brain understands that the majority of people will have a knee jerk reaction and shut down if you utter the various trigger phrases (such as "anarchism/communism has some good points"). so they'd probably water down their beliefs for easier digestion
but if you mean an outspoken anarchist who gets invited to talk about anarchism then yeah you're right, this isn't happening unless for a joke or to make them a scapegoat
They've had Alexei Sayle and Will Self on question time, and they're both pretty Hard Left, but while they criticise corruption and current affairs, never get to suggest anything hugely radical.
