How do you respond to this? It’s not something I’ve done a lot of research into, but it seems like one of the few critiques where you just say “critical support for the USSR, we need to learn from the past mistakes the soviets made and do better the next time around.”

Not saying anything in bad faith, the only thing I'm doing is examining the phrase "corrupt people" that you used verbatim, after denying my position without evidence. But I'll back up a step.

What are "corrupt people"? Where do they come from that they can chase after middle management and other positions of power?

Do you agree with the anti-entryist tenet that "you can't change the party from the inside; it will change you long before you change it"?

Do you believe that people's attitudes to the world are shaped by their material conditions/incentives, where for instance someone who owns lots of stock in a highly profitable petroleum company might over time decide that climate change is not such a big menace?
