  • thanks for the explanation. i guess ignoring china bad takes is short sighted if you dont purge them from your org as it grows.

    i hope you post this somewhere else since otherwise ill be the only one who sees it after the op deleted their post.


  • thats a fair point. theory is important.

    i guess i just dont know why anarchists with aes bad takes are being singled out here, when china bad is one of the least harmful takes a leftist outside china can have since theyve got no power over anything that happens there. maybe it means they got other problems with their theory and praxis that i dont grasp.


  • so how do we silence bad takes on aes, take power from people who have those bad takes, and use that power to diminish us imperialism? would ditching the anti-sectarian rule on hexbear do that?

    maybe im dense, but i still dont get whats to be done.



  • being a leftist isnt about takes, its about what you do. both ml and anarchist approaches are good for different situations. aes states dont need the endorsement of your local food not bombs group, but the people in your community do need food. decentralized groups doing praxis is sometimes the best option, especially in the imperial core as conditions worsen. takes dont matter and aesthetics dont matter. just praxis.




  • Even a superficial reading of an article written by a Communist or a conversation with one will probably reveal the use of some of the following expressions: integrative thinking, vanguard, comrade, hootenanny, chauvinism, book-burning, syncretistic faith, bourgeois-nationalism, jingoism, colonialism, hooliganism, ruling class, progressive, demagogy, dialectical, witch-hunt, reactionary, exploitation, oppressive, materialist.
