æʃliŋ, loaf of autismo @aescling@cat.family

@packetcat yeah i mean he explicitly advised all the time to study marx, engels, lenin, and stalin; which is really what i mean when i call him a stalinist. usually i don’t really use the word because it is thrown out as a vague or incoherent pejorative, but when we’re talking mao i think it is literally accurate

@packetcat i’m not too familiar but given trotsky’s opposition to stalin i’m not terribly surpurrised that modern day trots wouldn't care fur the thoughts of mao, who was explicitly a stalinist (though not at all uncriticial)

@viscountexx owo

@packetcat like mao openly championed advancing an anticolonial revolution alongside those in the national bourgeoisie who were invested in national liberation, in service of a bourgeois democratic revolution, with the explicit and open intent of later turning against the bourgeoisie in order to build socialism

@packetcat the palestine book my dsa chapter’s book club has just started reading was written by trots; their introduction vaguely alleges that various arab communists had engaged in a vulgar nationalism that refused to address internal contradictions within the nation, and i guess the trots were just too trot to acknowledge that maoist dialectics addresses this exact issue

@packetcat i love these essays, i’m happy to see somebody else looking at them
