They are 90% ultras ๐Ÿ˜”

Who is Bordiga and what is his dialogue with Stalin?

They called hakim a socdem???(like I agree he has some issues but this feels a bit far)

They consider China imperialist and said the USSR never achieved socialism and was capitalist actually. I thought these people only existed online.

They also said AES is a Brezhnevite revisionism and only 2 maybe 3 places have ever achieved socialism but didn't say which ones.

I've only read Lenin, Marx, Mao, and Engels so maybe I'm just out of my depth and not understanding? Idk shit is wack what are y'alls thoughts?

Bordiga is a guy who was leader of the Italian communist party from 1921 to 1924, he liked Lenin and he hated antifascists and Stalin. He kicked antifascists out of the communist party, and he thought Mussolini and Hitler were better than basically any living communist.

His "dialogue with Stalin" is a long series of critiques written in the 50s about why the soviet union isn't really socialist according to him.

I mean that's not true, PSL is ML and is a legitimate political party with tangible real life presence

The problem with the Turtle Island left is not even just that we are a percent of a percent... it's that we are disorganized, fractious, and spread out across this massive landmass.
