They call for the execution of landlords and say “Death to NATO.”

I am an anti-capitalist leftist btw.

    I was reading some theory yesterday (Obama if you’re interested) and there was a really interesting point they made where they said “when they go low, we go high”. Really resonated with me. Something to think about.

    I’m way far left of liberal btw.

      Tactically for Democrats that means concede power to the Republicans, which the Republicans never concede power to the Democrats. Even with Republicans losing majority votes, they use the court system to hold onto power and grasp more legal power.

      It resonates with a method of liberals giving power to greedy fascists

    I’m as leftist as they come, but anything that goes against fedposting in any way is clearly CCP and/or Kremlin propaganda.

    Those hexbears really take it too far, wasn’t it Marx who said

    We have no issue with imperialism and we ask no issue with imperialism from you. When our turn comes, we shall not make late rent payments.

      The other day I was looking up what Lenin said about Revolutionary Defeatism and it’s like reading it there’s no way he wouldn’t have spammed PPB at people lol

      This is an instance of high-flown phraseology with which Trotsky always justifies opportunism.

      The phrase-bandying Trotsky has completely lost his bearings on a simple issue.

      (Bukvoyed and Semkovsky give more direct expression to the “thought”, or rather want of thought, which they share with Trotsky.)

      Had Bukvoyed and Trotsky done a little thinking, they would have realised that they have adopted the viewpoint on the war held by governments and the bourgeoisie, i.e., that they cringe to the “political methodology of social-patriotism”, to use Trotsky’s pretentious language

      Many of them will reply that it is impossible, as Kautsky has done, thereby fully proving his social-chauvinism.

      Lenin was a poster.

        the funniest thing about reading Lenin is the sense that you’re reading forum drama from a hundred years ago and that he never stops dunking. hence my thesis that theory is the highest form of dunk.

          If Twitter had existed in 1905 there would have been not leftist revolutions in the 20th century because no one on the left would ever have logged off.

          Theory: When you do years of research, countless revisions, peer review, and finally publish 500 pages of dense academic work to prove OP is wrong.

    I became a tankie to get a free tank but no tank came in the mail.

    So now I’m not a tankie but still have no tank. Time for a “why I ‘left’ the left” post.

      “Why I left the left” posts are all well and good, but how about we get some “Why I right the right” posts

      Stir things up a little

      Unironically the war in Ukraine has dried up the entire second hand tank market. Good luck finding any kind of operable armored vehicle these days.

    Hexbear.net,” a communist website known for posting images of pigs defecating on their own genitals, oddly echoes George Orwell’s “Animal Farm.” Just as the animals’ rebellion against human oppression leads to their own corrupt rule, the website’s subversive culture might inadvertently reveal the limitations of its revolutionary spirit as shock value replaces genuine discourse.

    The similarity lies in the disillusionment arising from the erosion of original intentions. Both contexts expose how movements can devolve into self-serving entities that mock the principles they stand for. “Animal Farm” and Hexbear.net serve as cautionary tales, reminding us that the pursuit of ideals requires vigilance and self-awareness to prevent meaningful change from being compromised.

    I know, right? I’m as left wing as they come (voted for Biden) and i can’t understand why these so-called liberals don’t want to send cluster munitions to Ukraine. It’s like they’re Republicans! I bet they don’t even think that January 6th was the greatest tragedy our country ever faced
