Maybe as an experiment, let's try to understand each other's positions ITT and not have the same boring old arguments (because they're boring).
Edit - nice discussion everyone, thanks <3. I'm seeing a lot of responses from ML and not many from anarchists, but maybe I'm the only anarchist on this site lol
Exactly! It is my job as a socialist to do what I think is best to help carry on and protect our grand humanitarian project, and I don’t see a better way of doing that than defending the only states which as a bare minimum tell their people the truth about socialism and protect them from some of the worst barbarism of capitalism. At least, this is the hill I am willing to die on.
