"I'm also a Marxist-Leninist."

liberalism

Both are socialists. I don't think we do ourselves any favors by saying that one of the prominent left politicians in America, who is despised by the Democratic party elite, is a "fake" socialist. Evo and AOC are both important courageous leftists.

The differences between them aren't even that extreme. Evo Morales isn't a Marxist-Leninist or anything, he governed as a moderate reformer and actually was protested by the left for being disappointing on a number of things and not going far enough.

These people are the opportunists you've been warned about. Stop defending them. They're less than useless.

    You're never going to get one media outlet that appeals perfectly to everyone. Someone who appeals to the tastes of Q people might be just as absurd to a lot of other groups with the potential to turn left.

    What's the practical implication here, anyway? "No, you can't start a socialist media outlet unless you meet our undefined dress code?" That seems counterproductive.
