It's almost certaintly made up, but it's not like that's ever stopped anticommunists.

Ah ok, thanks. I know there's a lot of dislike toward Shining Path, and like I said I don't know much - I haven't taken the time to attempt to properly investigate - but from what little I do know I don't see any particular problems, just that they were unsucessful in winning (so far).

I recall @CriticalResist8@lemmygrad.ml was working on a translation of a book about Gonzalo being a CIA asset from Spanish into English. I'm not sure how much progress was made on that though.

[-] CriticalResist8@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 8 months ago

Yes

[-] CannotSleep420@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 8 months ago

Where can I see the progress on that? I'm interested in reading it whenever it's translated.

[-] CriticalResist8@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 8 months ago

We'll make announcements on the prolewiki twitter and lemmygrad community as it progresses!

What's the book title?

[-] Carguacountii@hexbear.net 5 points 8 months ago

Ah really? That's interesting - do you know who wrote the book?

Maybe investigate a bit further

Thanks, I will do - do you have any recommendations, especially ones not from a settler-colonist state or anticommunist source? Thats all I tend to find when I look.
