Russia will forever suffer for not being socialist until it makes the sane decision to return to the most superior form of civilization they tried to kill 30 years prior
thank you for the article, it was quite informative
and yeah, most 'libertarian' communists are too idealistic to actually implement their ideas.
the idea that directly voting for your leader is what makes a democracy is pure idealism and irrational
'libertarian' is a word too poisoned to used for me. thats like calling things 'authoritarian stage of socialism' when that doesnt actually describe anything going on. Its like a horoscope for ideologies.
this is democracy manifest
Especially since such critiques can be similarly leveled at many aspects of leftism. Every socialist movement has their reactionaries that twist the purpose into something that suits the needs of reaction. For example: 'White Leftism' cannot truly represent leftism, and representing leftism as 'white leftism' to hate on leftism is just an incorrect way of going about it, and ignores the largest contribution to leftism is the Global South.
They're giving ground to reactionaries due to their own reactionary sentiment, because they'd rather be comfortable than challenge their beliefs.
Thats my personal take at least
Education in capitalism is meant to produce workers who can understand things to mindlessly replicate it for work, not people who can think critically.
