I feel as though most marxist leninists types of people want to divide people on other countries issues while not fixing issues where they live. Most anarchists I know are showing up to mutual aid, cussing out city council members for empowering cops and are in general more helpful.

The last writings of Lenin was 1923 a hundred years have since passed. Most marxists leninists I know haven't read Murray Bookchin. Or don't like to equate an Andrewism video to the the writings of Marx or Lenin. It's like they think time stood still.

This also seems to be the case with most Marxists Leninists perspective on forgien policy as well. To think of North Korean as anything other then a monarchy doesn't feel inline with either of Marx or Lenin's writings. The USSR was what happens when a country with barely enough capitol becomes communist country in a short amount of time and unfortunately sometimes even forced.

Which brings me to Cuba. Cuba is a socialist country that has been constantly harassed, escalated, and intervened with. Cuda would be a successful socialist country if other countries wouldn't treat them as a stage to dispute their differences and not recognizing things like the bay of pigs and the Cuban missile crisis in their history is very short sighted. Just as not recognizing current day atrocious that still take place there to this day.

As an anarchist I observe that Obama said he wanted to close Guantánamo but didn't. And come to the conclusion that the military industrial complex wouldn't let that happen. Free the people in Guantánamo detention camp. Return Guantánamo bay to the people of Cuba. Dissolve the CIA hold them accountable. End the Patriot act. Fuck the police. Abolish the prison industrial complex. Abolish the military industrial complex.
