    surprised this has gotten over 100 upbears, Filipino Maoists like all Maoists parties hate Dengist China and this site is full of Dengists, but a lot of young CCP supporters in the West thinks there's no difference between Dengism and Maoism...

      I think people generally just appreciate anyone who is struggling and fighting for socialism and is willing to overlook ideological disagreements in situations like that, though personally I am very sus of most maoist groups because of how the ones I'm aware of have used individualist terrorism tactics which to me goes heavily against Marxism in a matter of theory and praxis.

      Maoists in The Philippines is better than basically every other political group in the Philippines, even if you're cool with Dengism.

      I’m surprised too, though I think the loudest of these opinions are from very online voices. I think most people on here know that any struggle > no struggle

      I also think many younger leftists are less dogmatic ideologically speaking. They just want anything that works
