    I don’t care what you think of me. I know who I am. Those are just words. It’s the actions that matter. Identity politics is just an expression of class struggle. Labeling people is a form of prejudice. I try not classify groups and discriminate based on political beliefs. Sometimes, people are misinformed and mislead. I’m willing to learn about different ideologies to form my own opinion. The Marxist Leninists I’ve talked to have been friendly and informed.

        Defending regimes that commit war crimes and genocide is a hard red line anyone with a hint of morality will refuse to cross

        So, you voting for Biden? I never said I was a Nazi. You did. I said I don’t care what you call me. There is a difference.

            Would you vote for Joe Biden if you were American? I said you can call me whatever you want since you’re hyper focused on labels. Call me Satan’s stillbirth. It doesn’t change the fact that calling people slurs on social media serves fascism.

                You’re yelling at a cloud. I ardently defend Palestinians against their genocide on Lemmy. I don’t like labels, but would be what you call an anarchist. An Internationalist with Council Communist leanings. And I’m here to educate those who think they can have socialism without abolishing capitalism. Marxist Leninists get that, so they are allies. You can’t defend capitalism and be a socialist. It’s that simple.

                    Marxist Leninists hold no offices and have no power in America. Their organization is limited. Hating on them is performative and masturbatory. It strokes the ego. But it also serves fascism by minimizing the coalition needed to fight it. You can hate tankies with the fire of a thousand suns, but they are against the very people we hope to defeat. I’m no fan of authoritarian leftists, but that battle should be saved for the fifth international after we defeat fascism.
