Are you people assuming that Belarus is like Cuba or something? That it would never arrest a Marxist? Because let me tell you Lukashenka will be as happy to arrest true communists, neoliberal shills, and just stupid liberals. This is not about Marxism. You are obsessing too much about this one guy.
No, we're saying that while he is a shithead homophobic Nationalist dickhead who can suck my metaphysical cock, the other option is a western-lead Neoliberal Ghoul who will shock therapy the nation so hard they'll think it's 1993 again. So, like with Assad we're stuck backing someone that in a perfect world would be on a Tumbril, in order to stop an even worse outcome.
As much as I hate it, that is pretty much my take too. But Lukashenkas's days are numbered as well, Russia isn't happy with him anymore. So I don't know what the long term holds for the country. It's really sad, all of it.
This one guy is spreading imperialist bullshit on ostensibly leftist forums.
The dude's a 20-something student, it seems, and part of a revisionist, pro-EU, US-collaborating party called "Just World." He claims this is Marxist. He dodges questions about fascist involvement. He doesn't seem to really have any real scope of the situation. I've read stuff like this in Dissent Mag, etc. from SocDem parties in Taiwan, Hong Kong, etc. where they have the same naive outlook. They think democracy actually exists in capitalism and privately-owned media is more trustworthy than state media. Really naive and there's nothing you can say to stop it because they won't know any better until they've lived through it.
Dissent Mag literary runs articles written by NED/CIA sponsored academics, anytime you see an event they are taking part in , stay clear away. The last "major" event they were taking part in was some panel on the question of China. All the rad/shitlib media was taking part in it, Dissent Mag, Novaro, and Lausen from HK
Nooooo u can't just disparage the color revolution think of the freedoms and democarinos
Yeah there's like 100k subscribers on that sub, that's the only reason I'm suspicious of it being an op.
This is naivete. Poster is too dumb to understand that Belarusians will not get to decide what happens next if Lukashenka is ousted this way. Not everything is a psyop.
Yeah, we had one of these here a few days ago. The poster admitted that they don't like any option presented. Literally a rock and a hard place.
Allow the continuation of corruption in exchange for maintaining public control of the factories, or let a neoliberal in that will legalize gay marriage but turn everyone into slaves and sell off public infrastructure to the west.
