I’ve seen several references to some sort of rift between the users of these instances today. What’s happening?

    This absolutely reeks of western exceptionalism. The “leftist world” is far more than what social democrats in Europe and North America think. Communists in the global south aren’t going to be lectured by people from wealthy imperial core countries on what the correct kind of leftism is.

    There is still a very deep colonialist mindset here, and one that won’t be found amongst actual communist orgs that are politically active.

      The absolute gorgeous irony of MLs saying they don’t want to be lectured about politics.

      But hey, I’m not your psychiatrist, so if you want to maintain this delusion that ML orthodoxy represents some singular, uncorrupted ideal which actually holds any relevant influence anywhere in the world, then by no means will I interfere with your monumental significance.
