Ive heard theres a lot of bigotry in ml spaces, particularly against women and lgbtq+. So i think sharing your experiences would allow us to learn from them. Im pretty sure this is a safe space, at least i hope so lol.

Edit: I apoligize for giving little to no profundization.(im not used to this reddit like social media, i only use discord)

I mostly asked this because i was thinking about joining Communist Party of Spain and i had heard concerning things about other communist poarties in the imperial core like the yankee one, and the british one. And i also saw this short https://www.youtube.com/shorts/poc6t6qO1VM and i was really worried about it.

Anyways thanks for answering and im glad the responses were so reassuring.

    I heard that Stalin personally killed 50 million Ukrainians and ate them with a giant spoon. Don’t believe everything you hear.

          I am an ML, and don’t talk to me like I am below you. My point is that Stalin didn’t make that all on his own. So what else today we are not properly analyzing that tomorrow we might recognize as wrong. It’s easy to look back in hindsight and recognize that it was wrong, but it’s another thing to properly analyse some wrongs that are currently happening in our movement or the leftist movement as a whole.

            This is not a valid question. You can’t ask “what don’t we know” because we don’t know.

              I’ve been here since 2022, during the early stages of Russia’s SMO. You think Stalin wasn’t perfect, but you’re very self-assured that all MLs are perfect, and if they aren’t, you would probably claim they’re not “real” ML.

              It’s impossible to have self-criticism about our movement with people like you around. As soon as someone raises doubts about something, you call them “glowies.”

              This is not a valid question. You can’t ask “what don’t we know” because we don’t know.

              It’s not supposed to be a question…

                I didn’t call you or anyone else a “glowie.” You are being a wrecker. You are just trying to find reasons to get offended.

                You need to go do some self crit, I’m done with you until you apologize for falsely accusing me.

      No he ate them with chopsticks personally given to him by Vladimir Marx with some liberal limbs as seasoning.
