@captive_0 @mganj79 @joewrote The claim is that the Trotskyist line is too favorable towards ML's by still calling the USSR socialism or a worker's state, when the argument is the Constitution of 1936 + development since 1929 changed the political and economic nature of Russia.

So many on the non-DSA left talk sh*t about DSA, then expect us to help them or let them ride our coattails under the false banner of "coalition building." If you want a coalition, be a coalition partner. You can't have it both ways, and you look pathetic trying to.

@joewrote @cmkshama You misunderstand. I'm saying they throw tantrums at anyone who doesn't dickride and refuse coalition building to anyone to their left.

@chap42chap @philoshua Here's a 3,000-word essay about all the reasons I prefer the Fowkes to the Princeton:

I'm only a few pages in but Harvey already gets some points for me for sticking with the Fowkes translation in a book published in 2026.
I believe in my soul that the ascendancy of the vastly inferior Princeton edition can still be thwarted.

@AnarchoLuke anarchists are reactionaries and everything they say just proves it

My plan to revitalize Jacobin Mag:

@sonofthecobra @EdbieLigerSmith wow, y'all are genuinely just that stupid
English
@captive_0 @EdbieLigerSmith The ML position on patriotism is the same as Lenin's, that is, in order to be an internationalist one must also be national to a high degree.
English
It’s so funny that all these ACP haters are in the DSA.
They call us social chauvinists for taking the standard ML position on patriotism, then join an imperialist reformist party, which is the actual definition of social chauvinism.
It’s insane. The Western left is so cooked.

So as some people know I am in the DSA, and have been for a while. I am still an ML, and the DSA is not an ML party. So I want to explain my rationale for why I am in it. If you disagree then feel free to share. I would love some sort of conversation on strategy for US socialists

@propublica @townhall1952 I missed where you posted the whole video. Surely you posted the whole video to prove what you're posting is true.

THREAD: Cherise Doyley was in her 12th hour of contractions at the hospital when a tablet was brought to her bedside.
On the screen was a Zoom call with a judge and several lawyers and doctors.
She was in court, a nurse told her. The reason? For failing to agree to a C-section.

The Bolsheviks killed 60 million Christians.
Why isn’t there an annual day dedicated to their memory ?

@tarxan1936 Trotsky was concretely anti-communist, so obviously communists are gonna vote for Sankara
English
Look, I think Sankara is a great tragic historical figure, but if he beats *Trotsky* then we gotta shut down internet communism until we figure out what's wrong with everyone.

THOMAS SANKARA 🇧🇫 - President of Burkina Faso from 1983 to 1987 and Marxist revolutionary OR LEON TROTSKY 🇷🇺 - Marxist revolutionary and leader of the Left Opposition in the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks)
English
@GuyFisherMoney @tarxan1936 it's funny because Stalin's politics were thoroughly menshevik and the main reason the USSR doesn't exist anymore
English
@tarxan1936 He was a Menshevik who, for a brief period of time, quit with his Menshevism and shined under the Bolsheviks. Too bad it turned out like with an avid alcoholic since he relapsed and couldn’t stop until the grave. He also delayed the signing of the Brest-Litovsk Treaty.
English
This is just such an insane assertion everytime I see it. Yeah, the commander of the Red Army was an anti-communist. Do you guys hear yourselves???
