100 more years of support to Israel, because the development of productive forces says so. Let’s hope there will be any Palestinian remaining by then until China finally decides to significantly arm the resistance and boycott Israel.
Revisionism is the biggest threat to socialism worldwide, and the parties that don’t recognize this threat are beyond clueless and forever condemned to rot in irrelevance.
Repudiating communism is the logical next-step after repudiating Stalin/Mao. Everybody that did it became a social-democrat sooner or later.
Not the first, neither the last time it will happen. The Peruvian Marxist-Leninist thinker José Carlos Mariategui used to refer positively about Incan times, where, in his opinion, the natives would practice primitive communism, with a somewhat collective ownership of the means of production until the arrival of the Spanish, who would conquer the natives and implement feudalism in Peru.
edit: at least, its that what i remember from reading his 7 Essays.
fairs, it should be better if someone posted one of the their crazy takes.
they are a Duginist party nowadays, kinda like the ACP.
Juche is an separated ideology from Marxism-Leninism. It was created by Kim Il-sung to serve early on as an application of ML to the Korean reality, but later it became its own ideology. In the 1972 Constitution, it replaced ML as the country’s official ideology (with all mentions to Marxism-Leninism in the Constitution being removed in 1992). I’m not well-versed enough to talk about the philosophy of Juche, so you gotta read their texts and make your own conclusions.
addition: Caution is needed when criticizing Korea to avoid making chorus with reactionaries and trotskytes that say smiling is banned there. It’s a victim of imperialism in the end, with half of the country being under military occupation, but some things, like the removal of ML from the Constitution need to be criticized.
Do you think that the Filipino police only used those guns to combat actual ISIS terrorists? They probably killed communists or worse, ordinary people with those weapons later. Even if China isn’t the main supplier of the Philippines, they are still involved.
And about Nepal, Nepalese Maoists controlled 80% of the country before capitulating, and managed to abolish a literal feudal monarchy. How many parties post-1991 did anything close to that? Its true there’s a lot of opportunism in Nepal nowadays, but the parties are slowly starting to merge into the RCPN.
internationalism is supposed to be a main characteristic of socialists. Where was post-Mao China internationalist?
my mistake, apparently India doesn’t receive Chinese support. But Phillipines and Nepal certainly did.
Equating China to the US is wrong, but their development since Mao’s death and the takeover of the party by the capitalist roaders hasn’t been socialist in any sort.
Also, Maoists don’t see China as potential allies because China calls them ultras and routinely sells guns to the reactionary Filipino and Indian (and the former Nepali government) governments to shoot them.
edit: India doesn’t receive Chinese support
edit 2: nevermind
It wasn’t just regular trade. They sold guns to the Sri Lankan government. And they defended the government at the UN.
I disagree. China did interfere in the Sri Lankan Civil War, on the government’s side, who were doing a genocide against the Tamil people.
come on, this isn’t 50’s China barely recovering from civil war. They could at least embargo Israel, support a one state solution and arm the resistance, like they did in the Maoist era. Instead, they choose to trade with Israel. It’s super frustrating.
