@Concerned_Commy @grime_witch hard disagree
@Concerned_Commy @grime_witch listen. I know tankies hate on anarchists more than they should. And vise-versa. But fascism and Marxism Leninism are explicitly oppositional ideologies. To say that we have any love for fascists is just plain inaccurate.
I don't like these memes when they're anti anarchist either. I think they're unnecessarily divisive.
@blytheSpirit @grime_witch I hate to say it, but marxism leninism and fascism are usually far more compatible ideologies than anarchism and marxism leninism are
@Concerned_Commy @blytheSpirit @grime_witch I'd have to disagree I am a Marxist yet I get along with anarchist just fine (as long as they're not the fake anarchist ancaps) The real difference is how they go about it the end goal is the same, but when it comes to fascist there is no way I'll ever get along with them.
@codeawayhaley @blytheSpirit @grime_witch marxism =/= marxism leninism
srsly leninists talk about left unity or whatever so much when through most of their history they have done terrible things towards anarchists
@Concerned_Commy @codeawayhaley the reason we talk about left unity is because we understands the conditions of today to be different than those in Russia in the 20th century. It's hard to say that we would have taken the same steps back then knowing what we know now, but that's why Marxism Leninism is a science and we are constantly updating our ideology and praxis to the material conditions of today. We don't hold grudges for 100 years.
@blytheSpirit @codeawayhaley and now you're trying to hold yourself as superior to anarchists because you can pretend like the ideas of marxism leninism are compatible with those of anarchism
@Concerned_Commy @codeawayhaley
They are. Anarchism works great for smaller communities, and specific tasks. It's good to have anarchist ideals when building a post-capitalist world and they also have a lot to contribute to a proletarian revolution.
I do not think, on its own, it has the capabilities to enact such a revolution, and I don't think we do either. Which is why I advocate working together. I'm not holding myself superior to anybody.
@Concerned_Commy @codeawayhaley I'll admit Marxism Leninism isn't a science, calling it is more a meme than anything else.
Dialectical Materialism, on the other hand is arguably a science, or a scientific philosophy, and it is at the core of marxism leninism.
@blytheSpirit @codeawayhaley no ideology is a science, you cannot apply the scientific method to ideological issues
