    In the same vein, you're not a M-L, you're just another commie in the pre-movement ooze that will one day have its own name.

      How I stopped worrying and learned to abandon historical struggle and embrace revisionism.

      Just like crab-itization or whatever it’s called, the “pre-movement ooze” is going to make many of the same mistakes as past pre-movement oozes until it learns the same lessons and evolves to a democratic centralized communist party composed of the advanced and self conscious proletariat seizing the means of production and implementing a dictatorship of the proletariat.

      Why not just jump ahead and skip a lot of pain and failure. Our predecessors left us a blue print of the machine they built that made it so far, farther than we have ever reached before. Why not unite with the remnant of other workers movements from around the world instead of alienating and rejecting them. Why not chose proven methods, solidarity and historical continuance, instead of abandoning the progress of millions of comrades for a short-sighted bourgeois optics re-brand.

      Marxist-Leninists in India bring out tens of millions to strike under the hammer and sickle, and I see western leftists saying “they could do better if they dropped the baggage of the USSR”. Western leftists who can’t bring out tens of people to a strike.

      I don't think that's true. ML is a school of thought, one that one can follow ideologically even if not literally doing revolution. A German Monarchist does not have an ideology beyond upholding a dead monarchy with no theory beyond divine right of kings. An armchair ML is still an ML

    I feel this way about every wage-paid MAGA idiot that calls himself a "capitalist" without owning any capital.

        People would be like "oh cool you own your own home" and I'd be like "No the bank does, and if I pay rent on time every time for thirty years, assuming I don't die, and assuming Wells Fargo doesn't steal my house, and assuming there are no wild fires, and assuming a whole bunch of other shit, I will eventually own my home.
