    The .world libs just couldn't help themselves but ruin our circlejerk.

    Sure fuck it. I'll Tankie. Castro is a hero. Western news knows nothing of glorious DPRK Juche, and comrade Stalin did nothing wrong.

    Yes.

    I am an idealist, in the same sense as Che's ideas about a revolutionary's love. I want desperately for us as humanity to make kind, informed, rational and appropriate decisions. I want to see the best in people... I also realize that's not realistic a lot of the time. But hey, have to have hope to keep going, no?

    Idealism should never undermine the reality of the situation, but it can and should be a guiding force. I am an idealist in the sense that I believe given the tools and direction we can be incredible. Realistically, right now the fight is tough, it sucks, but we can make a better world, or at least, we gotta try.

    As for idealism in relation to material condition, decisions cannot and should not be made with 'what if' positions. Plan for the worst but those plans should be made malleable enough to adapt should real material conditions allow.
