Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

I know what kind of people and things liberals have sympathies for and what they will overlook and justify.

So fuck them and their atrocity propaganda. I like the soviets. I like Gaddafi. I like the revolutionary peoples of China. I like Palestine. I like the DPRK.

Fuck you, liberals. It's your own standards and hypocracies that allow me to appreciate revolutionaries without much criticism because they dont have to justify shit to you liberals.

Kulaks deserved it. Landlords deserved it. Plantation owners in Cuba deserved it. Colonizers deserved it. Yankees deserved it. Ukronazis deserved it.

Debate these potatoes, libs. 👊👊

Agree with the sentiment, but I do have to echo Sankara here, that we must never stop explaining. We can't give up on all libs - our movement can't succeed without the support of the people.

But yea, honestly, the only place I feel like I can genuinely criticize revolutionaries is here - I am genuinely willing to defend Khrushchev in front of libs, and I really don't like ceding even a little bit of ground whenever possible.

The only exception is in the case of actually reactionary regimes that I happen to critically support. I am not going to pretend that women's rights and especially LGBTQ+ rights are respected in Iran to the degree that they should be - that doesn't mean that I don't critically support them, but it does mean that my discourse around them is critical because i don't want to seem like a patsoc/strasserist
