are fucking morons. I’m so tired of anti authoritarian “revolutionaries.” They want the revolution but the second it was won, they’d be planning the counter revolution immediately.

    I think the more interesting question to ask communists (both regular and left) is “will there be rights for liberals?” If they answer yes, you could say they’re ceding ground to the capitalists we’re supposed to be supressing. If they answer “no”, then they’re positioning themselves to the left of Hugo Chavez, Xi Xinping, and Ho Chi Minh.

    Imo, this is actually an important question for our movement and the fact that it’s been polemicized like this is actually super unhealthy.

      This is silly, rights are not portioned out by demonstrating ideological purity. That isn’t “rights”, it’s privilege.

      Private property won’t have rights, people will. In that sense, there wouldn’t be “rights” as liberals think of them. But people would still be treated with respect and dignity.
