From all the concern trolling I see in the other instances it’s clear that there’s no winning over these people. Everything is “Kremlin propaganda” to them. I do think a lot of chapos did go a little overboard with the PPB, but even thoughtful responses were met with the “hateful rhetoric” and “Kremlin talking points” BS. As always, it is to the Global South we must look to for any hope in the future…
I’m in this picture and don’t like it. I doubt I’ll ever get over my philosophical distrust of hierarchy, but somehow this made it finally click that I should at least read some theory (and not short versions, or long explanations of the current systems at play in China) before continuing being critical of MLism.
Tbh, I think seeing how insufferable libs are, and how the so-called anarchists of blahaj prefer them to us, really primed me for this awakening. Thanks.

I’d like to point out that ML is not some of natural “good” endpoint to political development. I’m not an ML ( though I think it was the right approach for Russia in 1917 for the most part) and am a strong advocate for a diversity of tendency even if that makes revolutionary discipline harder.
