This is the general history subcom. Anything relating to history is welcome here. Doesn't have to be Marxist, though it certainly can be. So join in on the discussion and let's learn more.

I... get that.
My issue is that ideas or positions that are contradictory to each other are accepted and not really rebuffed; it would be nice, frankly, if they argued or discussed their disagreements more often and frankly and openly.
Instead, we leave the hard questions for later or... never.
Primary and secondary contradictions, etc. etc. Is this the absolutely correct approach? I don't know. All i know is we have limited time and energy to spend in a day and we have to prioritize. We have to triage and address the most pressing issues first.
I certainly agree with that, regarding primary and secondary contradictions. Perhaps you're right.
