Look, you haven't sold me on the idea, but I'm going to upvote you because, if nothing else, this is an original take.

This just pretends democratic socialism doesn't exist. Like there's nothing between liberal and ML communist.

So, you are saying that if someone wants the same end goal as you, but has a differing opinion on how we accomplish that, you insult them. I'm sure you change a lot of minds and make a lot of friends with your method.

There is nothing between liberal and ML "communist". They're the same. Democratic socialism is to the left of both of those, and anarchist ideologies such as anarcho-communism, syndicalism, and mutualism are to the left of that. See, demsocs may not be the biggest fans of Marx, but they adhere far more closely to his ideas than Stalinists do.

I see now. Intriguing take you have. It's different than the way everybody else classifies things, but I guess I can see where you are coming from. In my opinion, ML theory is pretty left leaning when it comes to economics and the end goal of it, but the authoritarian plan for transitioning to it does not align with most other leftist virtues and ideas.

Stalinists are just so afraid to actually pursue their supposed end goal. They always say "I want a stateless, classless moneyless society", but if you say "Okay, let's have a communist revolution and get rid of all that garbage right now", they call you an idiot. "No, no, no", they say. "You have to have a socialist revolution, and then wait two hundred years for the state to dissolve itself." Well I'm sick of waiting. Russia never dissolved its socialist state, and China isn't going to either. But you know who didn't have a state, and still managed to fight bloody hard against the capitalists? Catalonia. They had the right idea, they just got rid of the state straight away. They were actually communists. I figure if the Stalinists keep saying no to communism, then they can't be communists at all.
