WhiskeyJuvenile posted:sure, but that’s the thing though. The affinity groups are separate organization from the electoral parties, as opposed to organizing under a single banter. WWP doesn’t seem to add anything to ANSWER. answer is a psl affiliate and iirc the question of open organizing as a party as opposed to doing so through affinity groups was a big part of the wwp/psl split. the bigger point is the parties' activities aren't widely reported — and thereby, not widely known — for the same reasons communist party activities aren't reported fairly or at all in capitalist states

My own experience with this suggests that one angle is that the Rohingya were never actually native to the Rakhine state, that they were instead "Chittagongian Bengali migrants" who came to Rakhine after the British annexed the region. It's not a genocide so much as Myanmar repelling an invasion. As to why, it's to justify continuing to do what Myanmar is doing.

the question about front groups is a good one I think. generally I'm very opposed to them, I think it's important to operate openly and with clear intentions as a party or formation. I understand why parties have used them in the past but I don't think theyre ultimately a good tactic to employ. its important to distinguish between front groups and coalitions however, coalitions are important and using front groups can often undermine real coalition building and work

I've also seen how front groups perpetuate problems that I think a lot of people incorrectly attribute to democratic centralism. they basically create like 2 tiers of membership in an org where theres the actual members who actually have the ability to make decisions and then a large number of front group members or membership adjacent people who are led to believe theyre memvbers and part of the democratic process but arent actually considered members for real decision making. a lot of fomrations who are dem centralist use front group tactics and so I think this problem becomes associated with democratic centralist party building but its really more a problem related to the use of front groups and an infrastructure which doesnt prioritize transparency and accountability which can exist in any system

Is it because it makes Communist Yugoslavia look bad? The massacres in Bosnia were all committed by Serb & Croat separatists, and Bosniak militias. It had practically nothing to do with Communist Yugoslavia.

The popular idea of the Rwandan genocide is a narrative that doesn't have a conclusion. Everybody knows that there was a terrible genocide waged against Tutsis by radicalized Hutus, and maybe they've seen Hotel Rwanda, but the question of why it stopped never comes up.

Milosevic was a more complicated figure than how he's popularly portrayed, and tried to end the war with an early peace deal that was rejected by the Bosnian Serbs. But he's primarily responsible for Yugoslavia breaking up in the first place, and should have been hanged by his ankles until his head popped. Milosevic and Yeltsin both caused the greatest humanitarian disasters of the 90s, and they both got to die escaping justice.

can't wait to read about the story about how this is actually her twin. But not an identical twin. So they had to do work.... And they performed horrific torturous plastic surgery in an underground cave full of gross bats and dirty dirt. And the bats were malnourished dirty bats that were actually human beings that were subjected to dirty genetic experiments. And Kim is FAT

The cool part about Western media constantly crying wolf on North Korea is that North Korea is actually awful as hell but now people are starting to defend them and brush off real problems out of contrarianism Sort of like how after a few exposed high profile false allegations in the current sexual misconduct media bloodbath, we'll just slowly loop back to "well that's what she says, but"
