Call me when Tankies have a viable political party in the US, or when one gets elected President. Until then, they’re my anti-capitalist allies. I’m an anarchist. This fight is in the future, if it ever occurs at all.
You should lookup the history of Makhnovshchina to understand how alliances with authoritarians end
Thanks. Interesting reading. But it only got to that point after the revolution. The left in America can’t even organize. Let’s have that revolution first, then remember the history we’ve learned.
The left in America does organize.
The justice democrats are practically defunct. The DSA can’t get elected. Politically, there is no left.
Everything is political, not just representation. I'll take our organizing wins and not conflate them with election into office, where we have only a handful of reps across the entire nation.
Tankies I've met don't start derailing things in the future. They start now. And they're in our political groups.
What are they derailing?
Only every discussion and attempt at effective mobilization.
That hasn’t been my experience. They’ve only been friendly. If you treat them as enemies, of course they’ll be hostile.
