With the help of our comrade Syntrofos, we have opened a Greek language ProleWiki! Of course, since we have just opened it, you shouldn't expect to find much, except an article on Marxism-Leninism at the moment. Irrespective of that, having an open Greek wiki will allow people speaking that language to contribute with the wiki independent of the English language instance.

Our editors have done an excellent job in ProleWiki, but it's a job that is never really finished. There will always be something to add, a fact, a specific knowledge, and it's wonderful that we are opening up to further languages so more people from more places can know about our project and contribute to them.

All glory to the comrades at ProleWiki! Thank you comrade Syntrofos for your work!

      It's bad. You have Syriza who is broken up as it's current president wants to steer it to neoliberalism, akin to the Dems in the USA, who he supports, PASOK, a now-follower of the Nordic Model and New Left, which is pretty much the original Syriza, so pretty mid, but at least better than the two previous parties. You also have Course of Freedom, which is also a party which split from Syriza, back in 2015, as they disagreed with the decision of a referendum for a 3rd memorandum and instead advocated for anti-memorandum and anti-austerity politics, which were the very original Syriza's positions. Then, oh boy, the "Communist" Party of Greece. Apparently, they completely distort Lenin's Imperialism with the so-called "Imperialist Pyramid" which is the absurd conclusion of commodity production = imperialism, thus an anti-Marxist position. They are also anti-China, their positions on Vietnam, Laos and the DPRK are unclear but they are pro-Cuba. They spread imperialist lies about China, they also are against Russia (Papariga has said she supports Ukraine) and they support a two state solution for Palestine (pre-1967 borders). You can understand how they help imperialism by this. They are also homophobic, voting against the law for gay marriage a month ago (and they made up a completely shitty framework to justify that). A Politburo member also wrote an article with literal trumpist conspiracy theories about how LGBT is controlled by Soros, and how the capitalists want to make a Human 2.0 (a gender neutral robot controlled by them) and literal patsoc shit, wish them good collaboration with Haz of Infrared. They also have some other Revisionist positions such as some for small businesses which are, though, ambiguous. So basically, KKE is like combining patriotic socialism, dogmatism and CPUSA tier revisionism together. Mera25 which was in parliament is kinda more Decent. Varoufakis is generally pro China and has debunked the debt trap myth. He is a very good economist and has studied Marxist economy. Sad he isn't an ML. Then there are other Maoist, Hoxhaist, left communist and revisionist parties which are also shit. There is not a single ML one though. There are few actual MLs in Greece (KKE claims to be ML but isn't), and I'm proud to be one of them. If you want to, you can read my essay on the KKE where I debunk their positions here: https://en.prolewiki.org/wiki/Essay:On_the_Communist_Party_of_Greece_and_its_ideology
