    MLs joking

    Vaushits: Tankies are literally Nazis!

    Such western chauvinism in that comment.

    what a better base would it be to build from.

    A good base of genocide, colonialism, and most importantly white settlers.

    It’s actually astounding how almost no interesting leftwing writing came out USSR or China under CCP.

    Just because you’ve never bothered to pick up a book in your life doesn’t mean they don’t exist, good ones in fact, do, especially from Stalin or Mao. What “interesting left wing writing” have you been reading? Reddit comments?

    Because analysis requires critique of existing systems which is goddamn not allowed in these countries.

    Ever heard of criticism and self criticism? Got a source for that? (Besides your ass) How can anyone consider themselves a “leftist” while openly supporting empire and white supremacy?

      I considered replying to them, but if someone’s this far gone and thinks they’re a ”leftist” there’s no hope. I’d honestly guess there’s not a single salvageable person who participates on that sub. I decided to look at the other comments and found this:

      Tankies have no actual political influence though. They’re just internet lolcows. Nazis control the second largest party in the most powerful nation in the world.

      “No political influence” is when you control the largest economy in the world, a handful of other countries, and have sizable movements and parties all around the world. Who cares if republicans are “Nazis?” Liberalism is just as bad. The empire they worship was the original reich and it’s successor. The Nazis learned how to genocide from the settler colonial Amerikan project, and they didn’t even go as far.

            Yeah, this was the closest map I could find demonstrating socialist governance worldwide. Tbf India does mention socialism in their constitution, so the map is not incorrect per se, moreso that India’s constitution is incredibly misleading imo.

            I hate how western infomedia likes to pretend as if the DPRK has “abandoned Marxism-Leninism” in favour of “Juche” and “Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism”, as if that made any sense. The DPRK is and has always been governed by scientific socialists, Marxist-Leninists. It’d be like saying China has abandoned Marxism-Leninism in favour of Mao Zedong Thought or SWCC. It is not abandonment, it is scientific progress rooted in the foundation of Marxism-Leninism. Annoying.
