But enough about them, any dirt on maoism-thirdworldism instead? Pretty sure that I've never seen anyone honestly professing this ideology outside of lf, and even there I never was sure just how sincere they really were

it's a real ideology, but its important to point out that anyone in a first world country who subscribes to the idea that all first worlders are at a minimum petty bougioise compared to the third world, and therefore cannot be radicalized or used as a revolutionary cadre is not only blind but projecting their own inability to give up their privileges onto everyone else. I loving HATE self identified MTWs as a poor rear end american lol. They make me so mad, so loving furious; like many lifestylists they had a privileged childhood and assume that everyone else did.


But anyway the point I'm trying to make is that its real, a way to put it would be third world socialists creating an international movement but ignoring outreach with first world organizations as an unproductive waste of time; almost anyone you see talking about it online is instead a life stylist living in the west. I think plutonis is the closest this forum has to a real MTW lol

Oh boy, time to post about my favorite meme ideology: Posadism.

Posadism is the belief that nuclear war is good, because it will somehow trigger the worker's revolution, and they will, somehow, win socialism in a post-apocalyptic radioactive hellworld.
Also, they believe in communist aliens which is pretty cool.

it's still kind of a joke but it's not quite as much of a joke as you're making out. the idea is that socialists have to do total war to stop capitalism basically. the thing about communist aliens is the idea that since communism is the natural next step after capitalism, the only spacefaring civilizations should be communists too. mix that with the idea that a nuclear apocalypse might be detectable outside our solar system and you reach the conclusion that maybe nuking the capitalist nations would be more than just murdering a bunch of workers along with the handful of capitalists

trotskyism is definetly the most mainstream meme ideology, and I'm serious about that

too lazy to google, what actually defines trotzkyism besides rejecting stalins socialism in one country and this entryism idea which probably was the basis for a thousand conspiracy theories?

i dunno about the theoretical basis but the practical basis seems to be making physical newspapers in 2019 and defending/doing sexual assault

Im pretty sure this belongs here, its only a slightly crazier take than what anprims believe in


pretty sure this is just a liberal doing some epic red baiting. then again to be an anprim in the first place, you either have to have never thought about anything for two seconds in your life, or think it would be a good thing to murder literally billions of people (there were like 50 million people world wide or some poo poo when the neolithic ended and significant industry was invented lol)

they kind of have a point in the idea of 'we must immediately do everything we can to stop climate change' but like the malthusian thought it descends from, clearly the best thing you could do is just kill yourself immediately so you stop polluting so maybe it's a stupid rear end idea

Third Worldism is the dumbest ideology, mostly middle class white kids who have noble savage brainworms

[guy whose never had to struggle or even really work in his whole life] Yep first world workers are just totally unreachable. No point in trying. A guy surviving off pop tarts and rice has nothing in common with an African
