It’s speculation because you don’t know what the future holds. And just because you’re not interested in a particular ideology or don’t think it has merit doesn’t make it any less communist.
My only point is that words do in fact have meaning, Marxist-Leninism is not synonymous with communism. Therefore, one can be anti-tankie without being anti-communist.
the difference is you named a bunch of dead ideologies that will never be revived, ML is literally the only form of marxism still flourishing
Speculation and also not relevant.
have you confused the internet for a court room?
Nope, just trying to have a rational, good faith discussion.
Your position is idealist and neither rational nor good faith - don’t expect others to meet you with merits your position lacks.
I don’t see how acknowledging that other branches of communism and Marxism exist is idealism, bad faith, or irrational.
how is that speculation, its material; Im only interested in ideologies with proven merit.
Im willing to take a chance of a synthesis on a new idea, but it has to actually offer people something.
