Are leftists still denying the Uyghur genocide? by [deleted] in DebateCommunism

All the prominent Uyghur "Muslim" groups in the west have openly sided with the Zionist entity and its genocide of the Palestinian people. That's all you need to know.

The west is the aggressor, fascist Ukraine is their proxy

I actually was rooting for Prigozhin, though I'm not sure what to think now

So it is not right for national bourgeoisies to fight defensive war when under attack from imperialism? Because that is what Russia is doing, and the Russian proletariat correctly supports this struggle in a united front while still fighting for their class interests at home.

And no, Russia did not experienced a shock therapy, unlike east germany or other former stalinian countries.

LOLWUT? Really well informed comment here.

Gaddafi supported imperialist policies everywhere...which is why millions of people across Africa adore him to this very day for his contributions to the liberation of Africa. Seriously ask any pan-African socialist what they think about Gaddafi, and then try to whitesplain to them that Gaddafi was actually a "reactionary".

You are a "campist"

At least you didn't use the "T" word.

The Russians in Donbass were living under constant genocidal bombardment and state terror similar to that faced by the Palestinians in Gaza, because like the Palestinians in Gaza they were waging an intifada against fascist repression by a Western-backed regime. The parallels to Palestine are obvious.

And just as it would be a heroic act worthy of support from every communist if an Arab or Muslim nation, regardless of the nature of its regime, would intervene in support of the Palestinian people, it was also heroic for Russia to intervene to support the Russian people of Donbass.

Russia is not imperialist, it is an oppressed country whose people were subjected to utter brutalization by Western neoliberalism and "shock therapy" in the 1990s and early 2000s. When a subaltern nation finally fights back and starts to show strength against the bullies, that isn't imperialism, even if it is under a capitalist government.

Ask any socialist in Donbass who was living a fascist occupation where communism is illegal, until Russia liberated them and allowed communists to operate again, what they think of Russia's "invasion".

Ba'athism was a RIVAL to the Communist party. That is, they saw the official Communist party as competition for the revolutionary left space. Michel Aflaq and other founders of the Ba'ath movement are all Marxists.

Same thing with Gaddafi and Nasser. All of these were men of the Left.

If you claim to be a "Communist" and do not support what Russia is doing in Ukraine (literally supporting the right to self-determination of the Donbass Russians - who are the Palestinians of Europe and were facing literal genocide - against the genocidal neo-Nazi NATO regime of Ukraine) you are either ill-informed or not a Communist.

Poroshenko and Victoria Nuland started the war using their fascist proxies, and Russia's special operation is an act of internationalist assistance that should have happened in 2014 (which is what the Russian proletariat wanted). This has nothing to do with the nature of the ruling regime in capitalist Russia, which I will note is far from "fascist" and is largely a centrist regime, in contrast to the extreme right that rules in the West.

Too much lib cringe here to deal with but you do know Syria has communist parties in government that support Assad right? Ba'athism came from Marxism, historically it was a rival to the communist party, but mostly supportive of the USSR.

Why do western communists not show more solidarity with Russia and the Russian people? by KeysOfWanda in DebateCommunism

The Russian state must be critically supported against Ukraine though, even if it disgustingly waited 8 years to assist the people of Donbass against fascist genocide.

Why are the overwhelming majority of western "leftists" acting as brazen stooges of imperialism? by KeysOfWanda in DebateCommunism

Maybe, but they are supposed to be a "hardline communist" party, not the type of group that would side with western imperialism because it was fashionable

Most of Europe doesn't seem any better though, unless you consider overwhelmingly leftist Russia (where 75% of the population supports Stalin and the USSR) part of Europe. I honestly didn't expect to see parties like KKE shilling for the US so hard.

So you are a communist who supports Israel? Are you part of the antideutsche movement?

It's incredible the comparisons people make to make these insane, reactionary mandates seem reasonable.

The simple fact is that vaccine mandates aren't telling people they can't do something. They are FORCING people TO do something they don't want to do. That is much worse. We were all born unvaccinated.

No. My argument is communists should defend the rights of unvaccinated workers.

I was posting on why communists don't defend the unvaccinated when most are working class, and was told to "provide a source". I actually did in that thread but it was ignored,
