    The Sino-Soviet split was inevitable for the same reason that no one in the Late Stage Capitalism discord server is in the Chapo discord server is in the other Chapo discord server is in the Trans Anarchist Catgirls server is in the Stupidpol server is in the Disco Elysium server is in the Cumtown server. You can make fun of this concept all you like, 'it's just the Internet', etc., but a great deal of the communist leaders were the same kind of people who are leftists now. Tale old as rock and young as dew.

        The tale is that leftists can't tolerate people who differ from them ideologically and will split over the tiniest things; and even over the large things, we find it impossible to build broad coalitions against things we dislike and work against them, at least without forsaking leftism in the process.

          It's silly to suggest this is something unique to leftists, or even more prevalent among us than other groups. It's just real fucking hard to create a sizable group where everyone can work together, especially if you're fighting an uphill battle and meaningful power or authority is scarce.
