oh ok so bhreznevites
And Stalinist, Maoists, and other authoritarian Communists.
Usually they also "love" countries like North Korea, China, and for whatever reason (aNtI iMpErIaLiSm), Syria, Russia, and so on.
Red Fascists. They use the same tactics of gas lighting and goal post shifting.
And engaging in bad faith but accusing everyone else of engaging in bad faith.
maoists??? I think you should read anything by mao. he was anything but "authoritarian", he spend most of his time after 1949 taking a sledgehammer to bureaucracy & encouraging communities to be self reliant
And also going around making lunatic declaration, indifferent to the human suffering he was causing.
As I have mentioned to a Trotskyist and an anarchist in this thread, you aren't going to make it far trying to be "One of the Good Communists". You are siding with liberal anticommunists. You have four options: Leave; become a liberal; have the liberals turn on you; or realize that you might have picked the wrong side in this conflict.
