@MemeTheVan @captive_ia_ @EdbieLigerSmith As for everything else I'll write something more detailed at a later time either today or tomorrow as I'm busy at the moment.
@MemeTheVan @captive_ia_ @EdbieLigerSmith Trade union issue is blown out of proportion by people like Parenti who is ironically who you base your profile after. It was a mistake, but a suggestion made in response to a particular set of circumstances. People use it to prove he was an "autocrat" which simply isn't true.
@MemeTheVan @captive_ia_ @EdbieLigerSmith It is minor in so far as position difference, and is nothing like the Georgian affair or the debate on the monopoly on foreign trade.
Whoa Pamplets W??? also I find the MLs in the comments so funny bc they love to say we aren't communists. Despite being attacked by the bourgeois media/justice system, and the Right, they say we're feds/Nazis? And also we're just naive students? U lot need to make up ur minds.
@AaronEly11@khrachvik You say "even Putin" as if it is surprising for him to adopt this position or as if his insight on this actually means anything when it doesn't come from a place of actual analysis
@Hoxhaist_TDM What many seem to forget is that homophobia, not homosexuality, was the Western import. During the colonial era, every single colonizing power had strict laws against homosexuality.
Prior to colonization, there isn't much evidence for homophobia outside Abrahamic religions.
@ajsb3ast @anonymous4_4 @mojofoe123@3mericanj0hnson It has been shown to be an ineffective tactic at weakening the state; let alone paving the way for the proletarian revolution. A focus on attempting to weaken the state by shooting those at the head of it disrupts work among the masses as explained in "Revolutionary Adventurism"
@ajsb3ast @anonymous4_4 @mojofoe123@3mericanj0hnson The people in charge of the state aren't just collections of evil persons they exist due to the prevailing conditions that allow them to exist, assassinating your way to the revolution isn't possible for innumerable reasons
@greekma90441325@m3t0l1u5@PamphletsY Three of those wars were before the USSR was even remotely industrialized let alone a super power & Afghanistan was just logistically impossible
The lack of genuine intellectual development it requires to be a supremacist of any flavor is astounding; like they genuinely have a hard time defending their beliefs against anybody educated to refute them
