I have a friend in Red Fightback. Good for you. But it means nothing to me what one’s ideals are, but the circumstances. Since we’re at least a few decades away from revolution, then I don’t want to hear anymore belly-aching over electoralism just because it’s respectable to do so on the Interent.
Of course don’t get me wrong I appreciate everything the CPB do and think their trade union links and food poverty programmes are an amazing example of things socialist parties should be doing
It’s really the TERFism and the sexual assault case that put me off, and the mutal aid+community focus makes me really respect Red Fightback
Any communist is a comrade of mine don’t let a silly internet argument fool you lol
Yeah, that’s a problem. Also, yes, I think I heard about the sexual assault thing and got confused with CPGB-ML.
Which, to be fair, ig, it’s easy to assume that CPGB-ML would be the first ones on the list of people who would gloss over that shit and probably enable it.
I hate ‘em and I have special hatred for that other "Workers’ Party" (by that one dude on RT) which seems to be an even worse organization.
But yeah, I hate TERFism; I know how these people think and they basically view communists as these dapper conservatives in suits and maybe trench-coats; they throw “New Left pseudo-radicals” under the bus for performative bullshit just so they can feel like they’re “authentic”; it’s how PatSocs are.
I’ve seen how they talk; they love the imagery and the stock-still moralistic communists of the past but not the actual reality. And so they hate transgender and genderqueer people in general, even if they don’t admit it to themselves.
Oh, to be sure, not all of it is 100% performative, but the alternative from selfish performativity is basically them hating an entire people or looking down on them.
Also, I think we’ve met on the Tankie Bunker server a long time ago already, haha
Not Red Fightback.

Oh!
Okay, I didn’t know about any TERFism.

Anyone who hates CPGB-ML has good in them lol
