I don't like AOC because her politics aren't popular and are polarizing.
You don't like AOC because she's not "pure" enough of a leftists.
We are not the same.
The left is filled to the brim with white people because paternalism just comes off as another type of racism. As a latino if you give me paternalism I just think you're a light racist.
The reaction to seeing the communist party of Israel is the reason why people don't like socialists or communists. Literally an echo chamber full of weirdos who aren't mature organizers. People don't like socialism or communism because they don't like you not the ideas.
We condemn the CBP murder that happened near the intersection of 26th and Nicollet this morning. It’s yet another continuation of the fascist invasion of Minneapolis and an increase in state-violence against our working class and people. We are calling for arrests of all federal agents involved in these tragedies and for ICE to be removed completely from Minnesota by building on the general strike!
@TwinCitiesCPUSA
Most patriotic administraiton in history
-Kills its own citizens
-Protects pedophiles
-Cuts Medicaid
-Outlaws protests against Israel
-Funds a genocide in the Holy Land
-Goes to war for Israel and oil companies
-Creates chaos and division through deliberate social media spectacles to cover up the fact that this administraiton has done nothing for the workers of this country
-Gives billions of dollars in handouts to Big Tech so that post-human corporate oligarchs have more power
-Does all the mass surveillance policies implemented by Bush and Obama, but even worse
The continued attacks on Venezuela will only benefit the rich not just from oil but by driving mass immigration to the US so the rich can exploit them and our domestic workers undermining our workers movement.
The same is true of Democratic Socialists though I do respect them much more than your average trot they also completely miss the root of why democracy is important and lean or moral justifications.
Even them I'm not an ML I do appreciate the Marxist-Lenists, at least in some parties and orgs, because they don't resort or moralizing about positions. Many of them do listen quite well if you have a logical basis for an argument unlike the trots.
@Ali233760259329 It's always those who tell others to read that need to read. At least try to grapple with what's said and have a material response. Anything else just allows one to not engage with what's being said.
Don't know why communists still glaze the DPRK they literally dropped Marxism. North Korea may have legitimately been trying to build socialism early on but no longer is.
Like yeah obviously they shouldn't have sanctions and such on them but to consider the DPRL socialist? Wild.
@CharlWho@JucheMaxing Marx, lenin, mao and many other socialists criticized existing socialist states and movements. Saying a Latino is doing western Marxism is just avoiding a dialectical conversation because you can't defend the DPRK.
