Slightly contra- the other user that responded to you, I need to ask: You've spoken with rightwingers before, right? Most westerners have had the "privilege" at least a few times to allow such people to speak for themselves. Have you ever had an even slightly comparable interaction with a "tankie" where they also got to speak for themselves, rather than be told about what they believe third-hand?

    I am a marxist Lenninist, and I can and do speak for myself.

    I'm an ML too, they aren't rare here, but extended dialogue between liberals and MLs is rare from what I've seen (though not totally unheard of). Usually the liberals are either very avoidant or combative (and sometimes the MLs get pretty combative too, tbf), which prevents there being any kind of understanding. between speakers.
