Leftist Infighting: A community dedicated to allowing leftists to vent their frustrations

1338 readers

The purpose of this community is sort of a "work out your frustrations by letting it all out" where different leftist tendencies can vent their frustrations with one another and more assertively and directly challenge one another. Hostility is allowed, but any racist, fascist, or reactionary crap wont be tolerated, nor will explicit threats.

I can’t say I’ve seen him explicitly say he’s patriotic, but he does associate with RAtWM whose “communist” strain is led by explicit patsoc PCUSA. He also spends most of his time attacking orgs that have done more than him like PSL and BAR (also patsoc shit) while hating hating on the Lumpen-proles which they also like to do. I wouldn’t be surprised if a sizable portion of his audience is patsocs. These Patsocs have symptoms of petit bourgeois ideology reminiscent of the strong labor movement of the 19th century who accomplished mostly just stealing non-white jobs.

why not let different groups try different approaches?

This approach is not new, there was once the browderites of CPUSA who is being copied and they helped the party’s decline.

PS lincoln would have led the south back into the union with no slaves freed if he could have, it was the slaves who took liberation into their own hands.
