There are 40 vanguard parties.

We're gonna found the ultimate revolutionary vanguard party to unite all vanguard parties!

There are 41 vanguard parties.

[-] temptest@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

This is a twelfth type of liberalism.

One of the bigger maoist parties that’s been in control basically got in control and takes part in liberal democracy, which to be fair is definitely a step up from not having them there and the monarchy which was there until 2008

Forming Communist Party of Hexbear (Posadist-Volcel)

[-] NoGodsNoMasters@hexbear.net 19 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The story of some of these is actually pretty funny

So basically in 2017 the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist Centre) and the Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Marxist-Leninist) together won the elections by a landslide, and a year later in 2018 they decided to merge their parties into one party called the Nepal Communist Party, so they did that and merged. However, in 2021 the Supreme Court decided the merger was invalid because the name was already taken by a different party, so they split back into the two original parties. But that's not all, right after the Nepal Communist Party split back into the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist Centre) and the Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Marxist-Leninist), the Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Marxist-Leninist) had some infighting and so some people decided to split off and form a third party, the Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Socialist).

Edit: Oh I almost forgot, a fourth party showed up in 2022 when the Communist Party of Nepal (Unity National Campaign) also split from the Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Marxist-Leninist)

It's complicated, but tbf not all of these are splits some of these are merging of parties and most of these parties no longer exist

[-] wtypstanaccount04@hexbear.net 17 points 1 year ago

What the fuck is going on in Nepal?

[-] NoGodsNoMasters@hexbear.net 15 points 1 year ago

Four at least three of those (and one that isn't listed), what happened was the two largest parties won a landslide together in the 2017 elections and decided to merge, but the Supreme Court ended up declaring it invalid because the name they chose was taken and then because of infighting it didn't just split back into two but into four pieces

[-] HamManBad@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

Why didn't they just pick a different name after the ruling?

[-] NoGodsNoMasters@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

Idk, but given the original unification was just after taking power, it's possible certain conflicts had already started to emerge and this gave them an opportunity to rise to the surface

[-] Salmarez@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago

Some real comrades, here.

[-] WhatWouldKarlDo@lemmygrad.ml 16 points 1 year ago

They should get all the communist parties of Nepal together and have a party.

[-] temptest@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

A unified party

[-] Mindfury@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

yall gotta look at the list of indian communist parties

[-] jackmarxist@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago

To be fair, India is far far larger and politics vary for every state.

[-] temptest@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

communism is when you only have a one party state

weihua

[-] Grimble@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Pleased to report the main wikipedia article has much less cancer. Lot of these parties eventually merged or shrunk out of existence, so they have 5 parliamentary parties and just a handful of little splits now. Most of the minor ones arent even recognized.

[-] anticlockwise@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

communism is a bunch of intoverts in denial that they don't like parties or people. real ones stay home and continue reading and writing. marx would literally not bother with any of this if he knew what you people were really like
