I was in a kerfuffle with a western “leftist” on discord. I was once on a server called “socialism” but then i got kicked for being a “tankie”, but that’s not the point of this. When I asked about where “democratic socialism”, which is more of an us-not-them word than anything imo, worked out, they pointed to Gadaffiist Libya. What would be a good response to that?
Yes, as long as they are Marxist
I thought the central committee controls who runs?
Yeah ok, and maybe, that’s for the better.
And who elects the members of that committee?
The CPC
So party members or previous committee members?
