    The problem with that then becomes that its a concept used to disguise alternative ways to suppress criticism or opposition, theres no equivalent "-ism" for how the west uses bourgeoise control of the media and schooling to entirely marginalize and make virtually useless leftist criticisms of the system.

      Definitely agreed, and that will always be a problem, because the people who control the channels of information, also control what goes through. In the West however, it is not an outright destruction of dissenting voices, unless they cause trouble or become inconvenient. When posting here I do not fear that I will get a visit by some commissar or something. At the same time this place exists because the old sub got banned, cause it was starting to be inconvenient to the people who own and run reddit and their interests..
