    Social-fascism in one picture(i was recently subject to a vicious Trotskyite attack, slander and creative cropping of pictures of my comment).

    But this gets the essence of it. Its capitulation by Social-democrats to war and fascism "over there" and using the gains of imperialist plunder to offer crumbs to the working class

    It is why Bernie can call himself a socialist and talk about healthcare whilst voting to destroy Yugoslavia and make Serbia the cancer capital of europe

    This picture shows how humanity is denied in the global south and accurately depicts fascism by social democrats

    The class struggle is muted in the first world because Iraqis/Afghanis/Yugoslavans/Yemenis/Nigerians/Pakistanis are getting their doors kicked in by trigger happy racists from the first world

    I think this is one my favourite propaganda posters though. It exposes social-fascists that sympathise with the first worlders pulling the trigger on innocent people over those in the countries that are invaded by them. You will see others twist and claim "non combat roles" forgetting that an army is literally useless without logistics and logistics tend to be the defining feature of winning a war (ensuring troops get food supplied/tanks and trucks get refueled et.c etc. Armies that are best logistically organised are usually the ones that win)

      Yeah the troop defence can get really annoying on here, especially when the US has been involved in the arrest of your counties leaders in the past and training of fascist militias and all that. All in all 10/10 picture/meme.

      Joey, people round these parts don't read theory and it scares them when you say stuff like "social fascism". When will you learn, smh

      Seriously though, it's neat how something as simple as this image showcases the split between genuinely wanting to liberate the masses for the good of everyone vs only wanting your own life to improved, consequences be damned.

      Lol, you absolute dork. How do you want me to crop the words you wrote? I’ll go back and edit.

      Should I leave out the part where you called the Black Lives Matter protests “representative of social fascism”?

      Should I include the explanation? That the protests sparked by a horrific racist murder by American police, are “representative of social fascism” because they didn’t organically come to focus on the war in Yemen or slave markets in Libya?
