This is sort of a "work out your frustrations by letting it all out" community where different leftist tendencies can vent their frustrations with one another and more assertively and directly challenge one another. Heated arguments are OK but pointless hostility is not (see instance rule 3).

I don't understand the appeal of "multipolarity" (lemmygrad.ml)

Personally, I fail to see why many Marxist-Leninists support multipolarity. The primary goal of the Leninist movements has always been "workers of the world unite!" and not "non-US-aligned countries unite!".

To be clear, in saying this, I am not endorsing US-led unipolarity. I am just saying that multipolarity is not inherently good as some MLs suggest. For example, the world in 1914 and 1939 were without a doubt multipolar, and those both resulted in brutal world wars which killed millions.

Could somebody explain why people support multipolarity so much?

The two European civil wars are better since they stopped the one-sided massacres against people of color by the European empires. It also allow me to describe the full horror of Indian Residential fake schools in the British diaspora by simply saying that it inspired the Nazi death camps. Anyway, if you seriously think that absolute authority by one person is the only way to peace, then I suggest that you put all of the Western European diaspora under the rule of Communism. The Pax Americana had been complaining that the Communists are so hard working and innovative that the invisible hand is employing scary red masterminds in key positions of British diaspora and Western European countries. They think that Communists have the best chance to stop brutal wars by establishing mono-polar control over the world.
