I'm willing to hear them out, and I'm still reading, but jesus christ:

"Unfortunately for the (New) Communist Party of Canada, their recently published “(N)CPC-CC Reply to the OCR’s ‘Red Salute’” lacks the substance and swagger of those battle rap classics. Politically, it somehow manages to combine the pathetic posturing heard on J. Cole’s Might Delete Later with the unearned arrogance of Drake’s “Family Matters” in a sad attempt to attack the Organization of Communist Revolutionaries and the politics of the journal kites."

Edit: Oh god the whole article has rap quotes whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

So honestly? I found the article to be somewhat sound. Despite my own personal gripes with everything bad being described as "deviation from maoism" or "trotskyism" and the rap stuff, I think they articulated their points well enough. I know as a Hoxha stan im supposed to declare ideological warfare with Maoists or some crap like that, but this was okay. Long winded and a bit cringe, but still fine. I've not read the other side of this though so maybe everything in this was a huge fabricated lie. I'll gladly waste hours of my time reading whatever people send me if that is the case.
