        Lol no wonder why the theocratic kooks keep saying communism is a religion because everyone keeps splitting like them

          Yeah, except the splits in communist groups tend to fizzle pretty quickly and rarely result is decades or centuries of warfare. They also resolve if the split regains power and is forced to evolve their theoretical basis.

          The only reason there are so many is because there's so little communist power in the west and the splits are incredibly small and niche. If any one of them ever managed to actually get into power, no matter how much they initially preached "revisionism" in any existing socialist project, they would very quickly re-organize and adapt to better relations.

          The Sino-Soviet split was really the only big schism which would definitely be on the level of something like the protestant schisms, but it didn't result in centuries of bloodshed. Both parties also have adapted and changed significantly from when that split happened as material conditions changed.

          Which I guess you could say the Christian sects did too, but that change was less defined and more generational and linked to the changing power structures of 17th and 18th century Europe.

          Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, "Don't do it!" He said, "Nobody loves me." I said, "Marx loves you, do you believe in Marx?"

          He said, "Yes." I said, "Are you a Socialist or an Anarchist"? He said, "A Socialist." I said, "Me, too! Democratic Socialist or actual Communist?" He said, "Actual Communist." I said, "Me, too! What school?" He said, "Marxism." I said, "Me, too! Revolutionary Marxism or Reformist Marxism?" He said, "Revolutionary Marxism." I said, "Me, too! Revolutionary Marxism-Leninism or Revolutionary Marxism-Troskyism?" He said "Revolutionary Marxism-Leninism." I said, "Me, too! Revolutionary Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, or Revolutionary Marxism-Leninism-Hoxhaism?" He said, "Revolutionary Marxism-Leninism-Maoism." I said, "Me, too! Regular Revolutionary Marxism-Leninism-Maoism or Revolutionary Marxism-Leninism-Maoism-Gonzalo Thought?" He said, "Revolutionary Marxism-Leninism-Maoism-Gonzalo Thought."

          I said, "Die, liberal!" and pushed him off.

      Even people heavily critical like ortho-trots or ultra-Bordigist leftcoms, as long as they support them over capitalist nations.

    There's an old joke.

    Q. What is the collective noun for Trotskyists?

    A: A Split

    (This was told to me by a trot so it's not sectarian I swear.)

    Its amazing to me how the vast majority of liberals do not understand evolution and how it works. Despite being the 21st century, we still see people reproduce the old, mechanistic worldview which has long since been replaced by the more modern systems based approach which understands how different animals/etc evolve in relation to environmental conditions. Posting this meme is the most liberalism imaginable, literally the same 18th century pseudoscience like the belief that all animals go through a certain path to evolve to humans, the highest and most obviously "correct" level

    Is this one targeted at the dick guy who said he was smarter than anyone here, goes outside more than most women, and really didn't like the use of "red brown alliance" because it's a NATO psyop?
