Yes

How could anyone support Deng with a straight face?

Deng was responsible for repressing Jiang Qing and her 3 closest comrades then waged a relentless propaganda campaign against them. Even broadcasting their trial on live TV!

The only good thing Deng did was roll tanks over the counter-revolutionaries at Tienanmen.

But even on that point, Jiang Qing was correct in asserting “Deng Xiaoping let in all those Westerns ideas”.

don’t support the direction the CPC has been heading towards after Deng?

Dengoids like to pretend that Deng was playing 5d chess and was upholding socialism.

All he did was align China with the USA against the Soviet Union and force the Chinese people into embittered wage slavery in the service of Western multinational corporations.

Corruption was so bad before Xi Jinping came to power that you could kill a person in China and get off scot free for $5000. That was the wonderful paradise Deng created the price of murder dictated by the “socialist market” being $5000

**That being said **I fully support Chinas rise whether Socialist or capitalist at this juncture in history. But if Deng had not defeated then propagandised against the MLs in CPC - Chinas development would’ve been more balanced and the West would never have entered into their “end of history” phase. Instead they would be wracked with social upheaval at not being able to access cheap Chinese goods to offset declining living standards, China wouldn’t have become so polluted and it’s overall economic development would’ve been better.

Full opinion is in this book. I am currently scanning it so might be able to link a pdf

But I suspect from your usage of the word “dengoid” (do I have to point out the racist roots?) that you’re not doing this in good faith.

Shouldve looked at my name before pulling that card. This is why most of the US hates western leftists. It’s disingenuous and conniving behaviour.

“all of you defending luna will come begging for forgiveness and I will not give any”?

I literally have no idea what this is referring to. I’ve seen some videos of Haz but I don’t particularly care for youtube culture nor do I want to be involved in the soap operas of it. I would have to know the context in which this was said.

Would rather appeal to the far-right than other communists, where have I seen that before? 🤔

You just straight up ignored the fact he suppressed and deplatformed other communists of subs he modded. Haz says he wants to appeal to far rightoids. Who cares? Haz wasn’t stopping BayArea from having any mention of his name enter his sub or trying to cancel him.

To be fair though I have no idea who bayarea was appealing to besides Sakai’ists. His own ego and patreon account I imagine…

I’ve no idea to make this judgement (RE: appealing to far right or the “left” in USA as I’m not from there) but I know I would rather appeal to far right than most of the Left and even those who call themselves communist in my country. Far right usually have just gone down conspiracy culture. Linking that to capital and capitalists is not very hard.

I will tell you now though I prefer appealing to far right over a corporate lawyer and Sakai’ist that claimed he was “POC” and “Latin” whilst not even speaking Spanish

Also it is my firm belief that the rightists will balkanise USA in the next ten years. There is a good chance the rightists and trump supporters (that will balkanise the USA) can switch sides during that time and make the impending revolution/balkanisation a socialist one.

The current US left is not capable of anything. (Just my opinion but I can see why he would appeal to rightoids)

What planet do you live on? Virtually everyone who is not a communist already associates us with terrorists. Until we begin to consistently meet people’s material needs, that is not going to change.

Literally not true. I learned this the very first day I was out leafletting and chatting to people and an old lady approvingly said “it’s good to see communists out again”.

The dude was protecting his identity, and

Why even do youtube videos though. He’s a lawyer. He’s an intelligent person. He knew he’d get doxxed eventually anyway. There’s programs that can reverse engineer his darthvader voice thing he was using in seconds (obtaining his real voice). He must’ve known this. If he really wanted to hide his identity why even come out on camera?

The answer is: ego.

He got doxxed eventually and it was all the more funny that he was a lawyer evicting families and businesses from their homes

for his virtually entirely positive contributions to our movement.

Yes the positive contributions being telling proles that “markets actually are the proles friends”, that China has perfected Marxism and that actually being a communist is dressing like a terrorist because building a revolutionary movement isn’t painstaking community work but setting up a protracted peoples war on an American highway.

I applaud him for his virtually entirely positive contributions to our movement.

He suppressed communist parties on the subs he mods who don’t toll the IdPol line as well as other communists like Maupin and InfraRed.

And whilst those 2 are dengoids also: at least they’re far more intelligent than he was, look like respectable normal people instead of terrorists and those 2 don’t go around wrecking communist parties and deplatforming communists doing actual decent work.

Least favourite person in the world

Imagine going on youtube looking like a fucking terrorist and calling yourself a communist because of such petit-bourgeois fear of “muh corporate job!”

The amount of damage this guy did is phenomenal. Every single person that agreed with him was already an ML and everyone else, if they didn’t already, now associated communism with fucking terrorists

Did Lenin write Imperialism for a tickbox exercise so Marxists could dogmatically open his book and look at the 7 points he remarked on and go “yup, it’s 100 years later this country is imperialist” or was Lenin describing this new (for 1917) emergence of finance capital subjugating industrial capital into its monopoly stage ie. imperialism?

Did Lenin get to witness the rise of the military industrial complex subordinating the entire economy of capitalist nations to war (despite seeing WW1 and the open clash for markets and colonies)?

If we wish to dogmatically read through Lenins definitions I’m willing to bet I could twist Lenins words into ‘proving’ the DPRK or Cuba is imperialist.

I see this PLP have written an article against Trotskyism. They may as well take Trotskyism back up if they are unwilling to accept the qualitative difference China and its economy right now has compared to USA

This is a very bad analysis. I can only presume this is some shitty trot org

Imperialist China

In order for China to be imperialist you would have to show that they are planting hard power in other countries. This can be measured definitively via the Military Base as the form of hard fist coercion.

The United States has 900+ military bases worldwide.

China has 4.

In no serious consideration can you posit that China has a global war machine dedicated to subjugating other nations. Neither can you seriously posit China as equal to USA in imperial ambition. China is mostly unique in the last 40 years that they do not interfere with other nations internal politics in a way the Christian crusader whites could never fathom

. All areas of life have become arenas for war, including technology. China updated its “Made in China 2025,” a strategic policy to make itself the ultimate ruler in high-tech manufacturing (U.S. Department of Defense, 3/25).

TIL wanting to move up the value production chain to develop high-tech goods as opposed to being the worlds factory relying on cheap labourers is China “expanding arenas for war”. I mean ultimately you are correct. They are “expanding into areana of war” because USA is so unhinged it may use war against China to keep them poor and making things for obese Westerners instead of moving into innovative and high tech spaces. But this is deranged US white supremacy pulling down their neighbours house because China has built a better one - China is not doign anything to expand into war

China officially expanded its imperialist influence with Asia-Pacific countries in the U.S. orbit (like South Korea, Australia, and Japan) through its RCEP trade agreement. Meanwhile, in true gangster fashion, China seeks to exacerbate tensions between the U.S. and Iran, a country of massive oil and geopolitical importance. Iran, hurt by U.S. sanctions, agreed to discounts on oil and greater “military cooperation” with China in exchange for $400 billion investment over 25 years (Seattle Times, 3/27).

TIL China is expanding it’s ‘imperialist’ influence by signing trade deals with other nations when China didn’t even initiatie the RCEP (the ASEAN countries did)

I’ve had loads of experiences like this

I read an article on the “heart of stone” myth (Stalin claiming his last warm feelings died with his first wife)

The book this rumour was in was by ‘historian’ Simone Montefiorre who was a British banker (lol) and the guy that claimed Stalin said that described himself as “somewhat of a national-socialist” and ended up seeking refuge in West Berlin when the Soviets moved in

Whenever you look deeply into anticommunist rumours and shit like that I’m oft reminded of Marx remarking that the prevailing culture in society is bourgeois culture

:(

This is brilliant and surely a piss take of when they were telling the world that Bin Laden had a bunker fortress
