pretty much. yeah would never say he was ALL bad but can say historically he's not really a man worth building an ideology off of

every iteration of the struggle that builds on past theory to keep a socialist project alive is such an incredible gift. exactly as you said it - i don't see how Trots can stay Trots when theyre actually being intellectually rigorous and not doing some anti-Soviet hero worship revisionist type thing

but anyway i call myself a communist that can see extreme value in Leninism, Maoism and any other theory written by communists in the actual struggle and this is what it gives me

firstly for any non-Hexbearians: fuck this. we were never ideologically shut in, we just accurately realised that theres no point having major sectarianism and screaming at eachother in our forum over minor differences at this stage, as it should be when we've all ruthlessly criticised the preconceived ideas of the societies most of us have grown up in. noone who stuck around was a halfwitted and properly ideologically shut in liberal or someone who was kidding themselves about being centrist. we didnt let these kind of people pretend they were right or had something valuable in their theoretical outlook on politics, because they/you really probably don't. if you want to talk about some other specialisation you have or a unique outlook on other things, sure, maybe. politics? philosophical conception of how the world currently is and what the issues are and what might fix them? unless it's some type of socialism, none of us give a single fuck

anyway thinking of anything in the line of "authoritarian" as a descriptor is accurate means you've already lost some communist cred. authoritarianism is made up. noone is truly free in any ideological manifestation of society. it's simply different levels of coercion. and communism, with its ideals met, is the least coercive system of societal organisation. on the way there will always be practical issues as every AES state has found, with the USSR, NK, Cuba and China for example navigating a siege-like global terrain and implementing cultural change in different ways that have ALL lead so far to the people's general livelihood improved from what it was before communism. that is absolutely undebatable. under capitialism each of these countries would have had near zero development and their people would still be generally impoverished rather than a steadily developing wellbeing slowly emerging under, again, siege-like global conditions

its performance in terms of being good is absolute shit as well as far as i'm seeing

Yea it doesn't give very much to go on about how time progresses and what exactly you'll have the power to do within certain time periods. Which is a fair bit of why I just went balls to the wall left unity accelerationist at all costs. If I can't properly plan then that's the best I can do isn't it
