Remember that ultraleft adventurism actually achieved very little in Europe despite decades of trying. Is N17 blowing up CIA dudes fucking awesome? Hell yeh. Did it actually generate popular support for proletarian revolution? No. And don’t forget the shitshow that happened in Italy. We forget these historical lessons at our peril.
Referring to the actions of the red brigades in Italy which actually led to a drop in support for communism in that country. The CIA allowed them to operate for years because they were actually harming the cause lol.
Yeah I'm aware that even having this discussion right now here means those movements fell short, but if I was born 50 years earlier, and even just somewhat similar to how I am right now, I'd probably be very sympathetic to their cause
