communism will develop differently under different conditions. western countries have strong democratic traditions so parliamentary success makes more sense for them. china and russia were war ravaged dictatorships in the middle of civil wars when the bolsheviks and CCP took them over.

If that does happen it's hard to argue eurocommunism will be the strategy that accomplished it. The parties that identify as such have largely moderated into social democrats or lack relevance on the national stage.

It's a meme ideology, like trotskyism

Eurocommunism was a specific term created by it's (western European) proponents to distinguish themselves from ussr aligned parties. It has very little to do with whatever you're talking about

i had no idea, pardon my ignorance then.

Personally, I think it's problematic that a sitting Senator has a racial slur for a last name.

quote:

In subsequent months, the newly-rebranded Red Guards KC faced a major fiasco when they arrived at an anti-fascist demo fully and openly armed, where they were quickly encircled by cops and told to disarm themselves. They had been in violation of a city ordinance that forbade the open-carrying of chambered rifles. Receiving the orders from the pigs to dischamber their rifles, many discovered they had no idea how to do this. The police were more than willing to help them and amiably instructed the Maoists on the how-to of it all.

what takes all that to the next level is how the author is also an Always Sunny character

quote:

Let's be clear about one thing: the immediate political objective of the action was to disrupt the KCDSA meeting by any means necessary. There was a plan in place to disrupt in a purely nonviolent capacity -- to bar anyone from entry, give our little speeches, confiscate their print materials, and leave. All violence would be contingent, purely self-defensive and consciously legal. However, the very obvious thing was that our leads on the action were eager to provoke a physical confrontation. I knew that if the KCDSA put up any resistance, the situation would escalate quickly into a free-for-all. No one else seemed to be really prepared for that. As I was in the prep stage of launching a line struggle, everything would've fallen into place for me if the action was a total bust. So I neglected to say anything.

Yes, it's incredible. Either he's obfuscating and covering his own rear end over being part of an embarrassing, farcical spectacle, or he really was playing 4-dimensional chess to purge bad elements from a 20-member-strong organization.

Do you think this is funny?

quote:

For the Maoists, the unity of opposites is only the identification of the one with the other. By a combination of mysticism and poor reading comprehension, they’ve come to believe that bad things are simply born “good things.” In fact, there is zero distinction between the good and the bad, there’s no fundamental process that transforms them. “Bad Thing may have happened but I know it’s actually Good Thing,” they might say, without so much as explaining how or why to anyone, ever.
