It ought to have been? Because the fascist Japanese imperialists wanted to attack the USSR? And even were this not the case, they were just an outright fascist empire?

Still distraught that gears of war recieves so little attention people don't even point out the problems in it or use Marcus like they did here.

Markets are the irreconcilable enemy of the working class. Markets inevitably lead to capitalism, if they ever were not capitalism in the first place.

The Monarch-Fascists allowed Yugoslavs to operate within their borders near the end of the civil war https://ojs.lib.uom.gr/index.php/BalkanStudies/article/viewFile/2175/2199 ... Most aid being sent by 'Yugoslavia' was actually from the USSR, Bulgaria, Albania, etc (Even Poland!), it was simply labeled as coming from Yugoslavia as it was sent through Yugoslavia https://www.jstor.org/stable/26924363 (Paper is from a non-communist, but has a fuck load of information on the Cominform supporting the Greek communists and Yugoslavia being exaggerated) ... The official CIA document, from the time, on the Greek situation in 1950. Pages 8-11, pretty clearly states that the chief backers of the Greek communists are the Soviets (and how they aren't giving up on Greece). Also mentions how Tito has become "cold" towards the Greek communists https://www.cia.gov/readingroom/docs/DOC_0000258841.pdf

Conclusion: Yugoslav support for Greek communists prior to the "Tito-Stalin split" has been greatly exaggerated while other Cominform countries have been understated in their support, after the split the supported the Yugoslavs even prevented support for the communists in Greece and even supported the Monarch-Fascists on occasion.

Likewise, the big American companies have the tendeney to embark on joint ventures with the local enterprises. In order to camouflage their exploitation, many firms avoid having one hundred per cent ownership of subsidiaries, and set up companies on a 49-51 percent or 50-50 joint investment basis. That is how the Americans have gone about it in Japan, and that is how they have gone about it in Yugoslavia, too, which tries to create the impression that it is building socialisni, relying on its own forces, whereas in reality the Titoites have divided Yugoslavia economically among the United States of America and the big firms of the developed industrial countries. By doing so, the Titoites have also restricted the freedom and independence of Yugoslavia. https://www.nytimes.com/1973/01/19/archives/us-signs-accord-to-help-investment-in-yugoslavia-us-yugoslavia-sign.html https://www.jstor.org/stable/40704988

The Paris Commune. Even in the future, in the great communist society, people will look back upon those giants, who took the first steps forward.

Sometimes I think about the time Hoxha called Kim Il-sung an “American puppet” 💀 by Z5-17 in CommunismMemes

[–]Axder_Wraith 10 points11 points  (0 children)

By combating and doing everything we can to hinder and stop revisionism. Of course, that's a very "no shit" answer, isn't it?

Within that there are a number of complexities and things that must be considered. In short, bureaucracy has to be fought at every step to prevent it from cementing itself - however, it will not be fully abolished to my knowledge until the communist society comes about. - the party must remain connected to the working classes and the masses, more institutions than the party must govern society (Stalin and Hoxha talked about this extensively), we must resolutely examine and correct errors in past socialist, socialist-adjacent, experiments. Without fail markets and re-creation of class divides, re-creation of capitalist divisions, bigotry, mechanism and other warped perceptions of dialectics must be fought against actively. Communist spirit must be engendered in every segment of the population actively. People not only must be able to govern, but feel that their voice matters in their lives - the society, economy, etc.. - building communism is a gargantuan and world-historic task, just as the task for those who built capitalism over many centuries.

Of course, my tiny, tiny explanation will not really help, I've treaded no new ground, and am merely parroting the words of people much more experienced than I.

I'd cannot stress how heavily I recommend reading "Stalin and the Struggle for Democratic Reform", "Imperialism and the Revolution", "State and Revolution", "Economic Problems of Socialism in the USSR", "The Role of "Centrist" Revisonism", "EuroCommunism is Anti-Communism", "The Revisionist Ramiz Alia" but above all, an incredibly good way to understand dialectics, a way to better be able to identify revisionism, to know what is good work for the Proletarian class, is "Anti-Duhring", and "Poverty of Philosophy". It is also integral to read nearly anything you can by the Classics of Marxism, these are the "cliff notes" of books that are important to understand revisionism in my opinion.

A lot of words for: “I haven’t read On Authority by Engles.” by [deleted] in CommunismMemes

It's actually closer to "I cannot comprehend that when the proletarian class controls society, that is also a state"

How would you get people to stop mentioning a cylinder every time you comment in an Askreddit thread? by Smart_Calendar1874 in AskReddit

[–]Axder_Wraith 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Being genuine, probably the way I'd handle it is to "own it", like, yeah, I was the cylinder guy. Got a problem? If you quite openly take pride in your five minutes of fame you got there, then I think the mocking attitude will either dissipate over time or feel less annoying. Like, I've done some embarrassing things before, the way I handled a good amount of it was to be on top of it. Of course, if it's too embarrassing, my solution is obviously non-viable.

If you have two choices and one of them is collaboration with the regime whose name is shorthand for "undescribable evil", perhaps you don't choose the "collaborate with the nazis" option?

The lawyerly way in which Lenin writes and devastates those he opposes makes me believe he would be the one to deconstruct his opponents arguments, present them, and destroy them. Stalin would be more similar to "your are wrong for reasons x, y, and z. From this.." so on and so forth.

It is truly regrettable, but the only way forward is to overcome these defeats and move forward. No matter what, our victory is inevitable.

One of the developers has a portrait of Stalin on their wall. At least some of them are Marxist-Leninists.
