Leftist Infighting

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?

I never once strawmanned you, and your gaslighting is disgusting.

You did, of course, and I pointed out where. You can go back, quote it, and talk about it more if you would like to. And if you want to talk about the incoherent comment and its seeming continued straw men, I really will need you to rewrite it to be coherent, because I am not going to go into that potential spiral if you don't actually care (and you absolutely show no interest in doing so).
