I have a few.

Tankies aren’t left-wing.

The second-biggest mistake the left ever committed was to leave religion to be fully co-opted by the right.

The anarchist critique of hierarchy is the most important critique the left has.

Also, anarchism, as an “ideology,” isn’t worth shit.

Power cannot be destroyed - it can merely be re-distributed.

We will probably never be able to get rid of currencies.

When it comes to socialism, close enough is good enough - but the state owning everything isn’t close at all.

Tankies are a COINTELPRO operation to divide the left and wreck left-unity and solidarity.

Tankies are being manipulated specifically to divide the left, and the ONLY people who talk about left unity are the “Ultras” and “Anarchists” and “Democratic Socialists” - all of whom tankies REFUSE to associate with. Tankies revel in treating them with disdain and contempt and belittlement, pushing them away… rather than bringing them in and being kind, caring people who want to share their viewpoints with in an effort to educate and bring others into the fold. Tankies have ZERO interest in that.

The Feds LOVE that tankies end up isolating themselves by being dickheads and pushing out anyone who might have a chance of being brought over to the revolutionary mindset. They love it. Tankies are doing the work of the feds for them.

Tankies are much closer to any capitalist and right winger then they are to leftists. They pretty much use the same tactics as capitalists and even fascists for everything. They lack the ability to understand why you can’t just force communism on people after not giving a fuck about even teaching the people about communism. They call them selfs communists not because they see the power it has to being better lives to the people but instead see the type of status that a communist country can get and they see the power that communist countries have as something to be proud of above all else. They see the issues that the common people face as small so the USSR wasn’t a fail because to them it did everything it needed to since helping the common people was never even the plan.

Seems controversial around these parts. But I cannot for the life of me support a lot of the authoritarian governments that claim to be leftist, especially the DPRK. I’ve read all the literature (finally) and I can’t believe any leftist would support them. I understand the importance of an authoritarian government during times of revolution, but the countries that employ it almost always feel anti-leftist and contradictory to leftist theory. I’m only recently this far left and I may just need more exposure. But even by their own metrics I don’t believe them to be leftist and they only use those labels to further indoctrinate people. Cuba is the only country I will support and even then, they’ve made inherently pro-capitalist and pro-imperialist decisions that make me feel that they too are moving into the position of being an authoritarian capitalist country with a mask of leftist bastardization.

Blockchain technology could be useful to build socialism.

Meat is murder and non-vegan leftists are being inconsistent in their beliefs
