they think they're the last possible bastion of morality. liberals (and thus Dems) are always like this. the truth is that they have always been enemies to socialism and the left, they've made a point of organising witch hunts, repressing revolutions... yet they want us to always be on their side.

the Chinese "Communist" Party lies about many things. this is not one of them, Falun Gong are obvious fascists and it's our duty to treat them like we treat other fascists. even if the C"C"P is an enemy to you (as it is to me), they are usually not idiots and know how to lie using mostly truths.

the beauty of analogies is that they always keep things simple for the sake of the argument. did the lifeboat fund a literal genocide? did the lifeboat vote against the right of railway workers to strike for paid sick leave? a thousand other things? of course not. it was being frivolous. we weren't

exactly. and honestly, not even all resistance is ultimately useful. we cannot defeat the far right for good without fighting the capitalist system that inevitably leads to its birth, so "socialist" reformists are limited in how much they can resist, even when they're honest

they are far from the radicals that comparison makes them up to be. they're the same phenomenon as Syriza, Podemos, PSOL or Left Block - a new leftist party that quickly turns center-left when it gets anywhere close to any government. I wish they were even close to true leftist radicals

do they want unity now? they always want submission, and that submission takes different forms according to the moment. but unity? liberals are fundamentally different from socialist in so many ways, there can only be very specific common action. the only thing they always want is for us to shut up.

in the 2000s, Lula gave the ok for Brazil to lead the UN "peace" mission which militarily occupied Haiti for like ten years and committed atrocities. after Bolsonaro won and brought some of the generals that committed these atrocities, many "leftists" here noticed that mission was monstrous

lesser-evilism absolutely always lead to horrible evils happening and greater evils to come back on their heels. then a next lesser evil will be way worse, and the greater evil way way worse. rinse/repeat, and that's "left" capitalist reformism and the far-right, always with each other - against us!

I'm a Trotskyist and I very much agree with that statement, and that Connolly ruled

"Coloured Revolution" and "Hybrid War" are just Stalinist/campist words for "I'm too racist to acknowledge non-Western Europeans/USians can think for themselves so everything is a CIA coup"

I mean, haven't you ever read Lenin's most important work? "How The Revolution Was Made By A Bolshevik Party That Actually Was 90% Nazis, Tsarists, Cops, And Other Counter-revolutionaries "? It was published posthumously by Stalin (who certainly did not make it up) and it's completely trustworthy!

tipo, nós somos sim ruins de campanha eleitoral, por motivos bons e ruins hahaha. mas não é por isso. na verdade acho provável que a gente inclusive perca voto pela nossa insistência na pauta do combate às opressões

mas o PSTU não faz piada com essas coisas nem fala em "identitarismo". aliás pelo contrário. você não está nos confundindo com o PCO?
