Nope you can’t say that, it’s not allowed, we’re a left unity forum not a commy forum how are you gonna court the socdems talking like that please consider how you build a movement out of this, mods mods mods (context, I’m just complaining)
Left unity and non-sectarianism is unfortunately and usually code for allowing opportunitists, left-coms and chauvinists to destroy/deenergize/disarm leftist movements.
As more and more people need to „get“ even good intentions and „benign motivations“ will be used by the empire.
This is just one moderator’s perspective (mine, if that isn’t clear); take it as such:
Nowhere on the site do we officially advertise as a “Left-Unity” community, which I believe is a colloquialism used in an attempt to succinctly describe the site and its vibe, especially to people outside the site. That being, we don’t discourage baby leftists from joining the site, and we don’t explicitly advertise as either an Anarchist forum or a Marxist/Marxist-Leninist forum. We’re going to inevitably have new users on the site where this is their dealing with this kind of opertunism. People’s understanding doesn’t come with age, it comes with education, and I’ll be real here and tell you it’s comrades on this site that became the catalyst for me to read more theory, which has sharpened my understanding of electoralism in the context of revolutionary struggle.
My interpretation of the rule:
Respect that people have differences of opinion and that every leftist has a place in our community. Discussing differences in theory is fine and encouraged, just don’t make it personal. Remember: Sectarianism is liberalism.
Is that it is intended as a rule for mediating the existing tensions between Anarchist and Marxist-Leninist tendencies. I can’t speak for historical rulings on the matter, but that is my understanding and interpretation. So threads like this one, do not fall under that rule, in my opinion.
Criticisms of socdems on here pushed me to read theory too and radicalized me further left while I was a socdem, so I personally appreciate that policy
Social democracy is objectively the moderate wing of fascism.
