I'm surprised Gonzalo doesn't get brought up by anticommunists more. He's a Peruvian Pol Pot. Baby boiling is such an obvious addition to the regular 100 stallilion dead vuvuzela no iphone shit.
Because ultimately the Khmer Rouge doesn’t have a successful legacy that needs debunking. We all know how successful the USSR was and how China continues to be. The capitalists need to be able to see “ok sure the commies maybe had incredible growth and improvement of living standards… but they killed a gajillion people to do it.”
They attack the ones that succeeded in achieving revolution. They're perfectly fine with leftists following the theory that fails.
Pol Pot should be THE thing that anticommunist bring first, but their brainpan render them unable to learn more than two (2) ebil gommunists names
I’ve heard the line “communists and marxists need to answer for Pol Pot”
It was a podcast though
“communists and marxists need to answer for Pol Pot”
Answer: "This is why you need to read theory"
The perfect answer for leftists and non-leftists alike
did that actually happen, do you know?
I don't really know much about shining path, and I tend to automatically disbelieve anything a settler colonial state like Peru or the US etc says, especially when its blood libel level outrageous.
It's something that got broken telephoned into a meme. IIRC a village lynched a local party leader and in retaliation the local cadre violently attacked the village. In the attack they threw boiling water at people, including pregnant women, and later Gonzalo made a somewhat unapologetic statement on the attack.
They admitted to killing babies, and they were proven to have boiled peasants alive.
People have put two and two together, but there’s no concrete proof of boiling babies IIRC. However, the other two are damning enough without combining them
It's almost certaintly made up, but it's not like that's ever stopped anticommunists.
A true revolutionary prevents cross-contamination in the kitchen by properly sanitizing anything that may have come in contact with raw meat before proceeding with the rest of the food prep
A true revolutionary washes their chicken in the sink and splashes salmonella around their kitchen
A true revolutionary farts into the cushion to stifle the odor
very angry yall apparently don't know how to clean your kitchen
That's bourgeois
im a marxist-bidetist
if you're not washing your ass you're just another agent of capitalism
Jordan Peterson: you aren't allowed to have a political opinion until you clean your room.
Me, a Marxist-Bidetist: you aren't allowed to have a political opinion until you clean your butthole.
I tend to reject gatekeeping, but this is one gate I think we should keep around.
Hot take: I have been in a few leftist org meetings where it felt like there were a number of members who could have benefited from some personal hygiene lessons.
I have a part Peruvian friend. He's definitely left wing like Che and Fidel, but when we saw some pro Gonzalo graffiti, he was like wtf?
I wonder what his reaction would be if he saw that protest on an American campus where white leftists were chanting about how good Gonzalo is a couple years ago
Libs walking around with their noses got, unwiped shit in their pants, and morning breath that could smoke out a beehive
Bow down to their calculating rationality
serious question: what did Gonzalo write? I keep seeing maoists telling people to read Gonzalo, but I literally cannot find a single thing this man wrote
that's actually a good point. People complain about baby boiling, but what if those babies grew up to become hitler?
Usually they mean read Collected Works of the Communist Party of Peru, General Line of PCP, or interview with Gonzalo. Think there's some stuff directly attributed to him that's mostly based on expanding Mariategui.
As we all know, one flaw of the Bolshevik revolution was that they all shit their pants constantly, Mao corrected this and furthered the immortal science of Marxism.
TIL not having a doodoo ass makes you an ultra
Maybe if the fascists read his works, they wouldn't smell like shit
