This isn’t a maoist take nor is this a new thing to say. This criticism, which when applied not to Minh, but to vietnam, is correct. https://www.marxists.org/history/erol/uk.firstwave/mlob-centrist.pdf I’m well aware this is a necropost, but I don’t browse here too often.

If you’ve read what the CPC has to say in regard to Stalin and the secret speech, when they say “70/30” they are agreeing with more or less everything Khrushchev had to say, but saying “in spite of this, Stalin was good” you can see this in The 1963 CPC document, ‘On the Question of Stalin’, and ‘More on the Historical Experience of the Dictatorship of the Proletariat’ (which was published six months after the release of Khrushchev’s ‘secret speech’ by the US government).

thanks. the reason I was asking because I am a friend of Slog, in case you know who that is.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I was previously unaware of it, and for me at least, it was not common knowledge. I’ve read the passages and I will watch the video and will read the text as well. I’ll make sure to tell my friends as well, thank you!

I’ve never heard of the CNT-FAI labor camps or Makhno doing peasant chain gangs. could you provide me some reading or whatever source you used? I’d be curious to read about that.

By chance was that cult mentioned originally a server caused by people posting the among ass twerking gif? (I’m serious) Because my friend was in that server and was banned after Cassia in effect took it over, I think he was questioning her about imperialism or something and she banned him. I thought she was just an asshole, and seeing this post was sickening beyond belief.

I’ve seen this image before and the concept is quite ludicrous to me, people ought to be more angered by this kind of thing! They strip your value from you, and then have the audacity to demand that you work every second of the time you don’t even make your pay for with absolute effort.

it’s an okay video, but as seems a trend, she (Viki) cites wikipedia way too much for comfort. She’s a good content maker but at times she appears to have a bit of western bias at times.
