Yeah, the protest left is worthy of criticism, but the pazis are not offering real alternatives or even coherent theory a lot of the time.
I really would be more hesitant to lump all these guys together with Carlos Garrido, Radhika Desai, Carlos Martinez, and other anti-imperialist writers. For instance, Infrared is someone whose cult I have monitored, and his ideas have practivally nothing to do with these people. He's a Heideggerian nutjob.
If MWM was "wiling to collab" with Haz, it was likely because of these quotes from Lenin and Engels and Ho Chi Minh they are quoting about a willingness to communicate with people who have impure beliefs.
That tracks for me, I extricated so many people from their cult into my epic hangout zones they started to call me The Skinwalker.
Totally, the “MAGACommunists” are more absurd and different from patsocs. That doesn’t mean the right deviationism isn’t related and a problem in both.
At least it's actually coherent on some level unlike Maupin's shit. They're citing a lot of different communists and US civil rights activists making use use of the same kind of language appealing to the few progressive aspects of the US revolution, I sense some weird lingering streamer beef here. I say all this as a person who believes the US is already a fascist nation, essentially.
I think some of the language which can be found on More Perfect Union's website is way more extreme than either, as a side note. I see them posted around a lot for their reporting on labor action. I remember one of their articles popped up in my feed and it's a white dude talking about being oppressed for having red hair and how Obama inspired him to be a lawyer. He clarifies he's part of the organization just because he followed one of the org leaders on Twitter for ages. Look at this from their form about setting up a chapter:
