I’m Indian, specifically Sourh Indian.
We learn English in our schools and it is he main medium for school and college education.

Did you not realise that my comment was saying that the article was trivialising the mistakes of the west?

The content of the article applies to the Western countries too, but withholds that.
Quoting what you quoted:

• Details are withheld or taken out of context.
• Speculative information is presented as fact.
• The stories are often told in emotive terms in a bid to trigger our anger, shock, fear or resentment.

Also, the artcile admits that there are kernels of truth. But are those truths being confronted?

The trivialisation is indeed a reason why China and Russia are getting more support in developing countries, which have the history of facing Western colonialisation.

The people know that it is a fight for dominance and we don’t need to take western narratives at face value.

Also, even outside foreign intervention, the democracy and freedom image gets tarnished with all that is happening in America and EU, with the RW rising and taking power.

Not a Westerner, but randomly saw this in my feed and read the content quoted in the text.

Your govt’s are indeed problematic in foreign affairs, right? Not saying that it is illogical, but problematic because it is inherently focused on western dominance
Trump ordering hits on boats. And Trump openly talks about annexing countries.

How the US went to Iraq war, based on exaggerations of WMD’s. How even before that US was supporting apartheid South Africa and had Mandela in a terror list?
ICE kidnapping people, deporting them to secret locations. Should mention Guantanamo bay and similar things too.

If it was freedom and democracy, wouldn’t western govt’s also send military and aid to Gaza to save them? So, Ukraine is indeed a strategetic choice. Or it’s part racism?

Also, don’t African countries have concerns on neocolonialism by the West? French influence on former colonies via the currency?

And might be unpopular, but Russia was indeed a victim(considering the disintegration era), right? Like, they opened up and saw significant drops in key QoL figures, like the life expectancy.
One reason why Putin gets support is because of how his time started the transition out of the drop, right?

Not saying that they are saviors, but that they are potential alternatives to the West. More options

What if they made the meme on a mobile phone?

India is also the most populous country in the world currently and I think our percapita usage has not reached western levels. Atleast not US levels.

Though, yes, we do need to transition to solar and we currently don’t have a Marxist-led govt like China(Would be cool if our leaders became pragmatic Marxists, but very wishful), but I think we are looking into solar decently.

Today’s the 69^th anniversary of the state’s formation

They had been talking about it this goal and making lists of families and people who’d need assistance, atleast 3 years ago. So this is not just a sudden PR thing too.

The recent Diwali celebration saw a lot of firecracker usage and it had an effect of spiking AQI.
Many were talking about it on the net and the Hindutva nationalists mentioned other stuff like how vehicular pollution and stubble burning had greater influences and called it hinduphobia and were going like ‘We’ll burn more firecrackers’.

As people understood, the AQI went from bad to worse.

The BJP govt has been trying to manipulate data, by spraying water near monitoring stations.

They talked about cloud seeding, but it failed too.

Well, USAmerican govt’s propaganda(aimed to keep their people misdirected and supportive of invasions like that in Iraq) targets Stalin and other figures who had either looked at economic systems beyond capitalism or opposed USAmerican imperialism(directed by their ruling class), right?

Same for Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Fidel, Che and even Nelson Mandela.

The USSR and Cuba had aided anti-apartheid struggles in Africa.

Video snippets of Mandela talking about it:

Also, not saying that all those people were perfect, but the reason for the hate does not seem to be the imperfections, but them opposing or being threats to the interests of the USAmerican ruling class.

For most folks in the west, stalin is considered to be a brutal authoritarian dictator who made a deal with the nazis to carve up europe into spheres of influence.

Do they not know of how the western leaders enabled the Nazis to carve up Czechoslovakia and opposed USSR’s call for a united front against Nazis?

The Molotov-Ribbentrop non-aggression pact, USSR happened after the Munich agreement where Britain, France and Italy came together to allow the Nazis and Poland to annex Czechoslovakia.

And if you think there were no agreements before:
1934 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German–Polish_declaration_of_non-aggression
1935 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-German_Naval_Agreement
1938 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munich_Agreement
1939 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molotov–Ribbentrop_Pact

And the next para from the text you quoted goes into the reasons, right? Searched with the text you shared and got this:

The point is that Marxism and anarchism are built up on entirely different principles, in spite of the fact that both come into the arena of the struggle under the flag of socialism. The cornerstone of anarchism is the individual, whose emancipation, according to its tenets, is the principal condition for the emancipation of the masses, the collective body. According to the tenets of anarchism, the emancipation of the masses is impossible until the individual is emancipated. Accordingly, its slogan is: “Everything for the individual.” The cornerstone of Marxism, however, is the masses, whose emancipation, according to its tenets, is the principal condition for the emancipation of the individual. That is to say, according to the tenets of Marxism, the emancipation of the individual is impossible until the masses are emancipated. Accordingly, its slogan is: “Everything for the masses.”

How do you see his critique? Do you think that anarchism cares less about wider social emancipation?
I don’t have much experience with literature on Anarchism(or Marxism, but relatively better there), so would be cool to know your opinions on it

Aah.

Posing a question on this same logic(I don’t agree with this, just asking to see whether you view it similarly. Also, assuming that you are USAmerican):
Are the Southern states of USAmerica under imperialism now?
Or is imperialism cool when it’s the Northern USAmerican states doing imperialism on the Confederate States?

Doesn’t Taiwan call itself RoC, while China call itself PRoC?
So they both are having claims, right?
The communists won in the civil war with wider support and the KMT escaped to Taiwan.

And atleast some people on both sides seem to be thinking about reunification. I think the communists are more correct, but ultimately let the people there decide on how they reunify.

But your leftists would need to try elections as a way to raise points that unite the people and check for support, right?

Though, structural changes via elections alone may be sabotaged. People like your current Pres or others may not respect election results if a decent left wins and tries to restructure and limit your issues like lobbying. So you’d need to be ready for that too.

Are you from USAmerica? If yes, you do.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thirteenth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution

Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

If not, are they in this list:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penal_labour#By_country

Not really

We have more tech n all, right?

Who are they? I have heard of centre-left folk like Bernie Sanders and AOC. Any Marxist leader?

I think they seem as leftists only in the context of America

I’m from India, we have a Fabian socialist influence(but we have a RW party in power here for over a decade now) and from the net your available main party options seem to be centre-left to Right.

And you have no real economical left too, right? Bernie Sanders who was bit left of centre-left was restricted by his party, right?

Is it a big enough concern to not go in that direction?

Even if it can’t be 100%, wouldn’t 99% or even 90% be good, right?

Or is it a theoretical question?

If you are USAmerican, didn’t your govt actively kill/silence/sabotage the leftists?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McCarthyism
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Hampton
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Gladio

You have no successful left because it gets actively killed by your govt. Your govt is even planning to send its military/national guard into the cities in your country where “liberals” are in power, right?

And regarding doubts on the claim on Xinjiang pushed by your govt, it looks like them manufacturing consent against their enemies rather than caring about the issue, because they are actively supporting genocide in Gaza.
With the history on the invasion of Iraq, why wouldn’t people doubt it?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nayirah_testimony

Democratic dictatorship of the Ultra wealthy, Capitalists etc. vs Democratic dictatorship of the Common people?

genocide

Wasn’t there a pic of Xinjiang and Gaza being shared to show that this was western exaggeration and blame shifting?
