Left Wing Discussion Thread IV: Oh Hai Marx

[Democratic Communist Federation]

Japan, the Netherlands, Canada, and New Zealand have also condemned Hezbollah. I must point out that your own judgement is worthless. Someone may use their own judgement to believe the KKK isn't a terrorist organization. However, they'd still be wrong.

Whose judgment should I use if not my own? I am an academic, not a yes-man. And, no, the KKK is not a terrorist organization. It is a terrorist movement which encompasses multiple organizations.

The fact that you don't like Antifa, one of the major activities of libertarian Marxism and anarchism, does not magically transform it into a terrorist movement. Have some people in Antifa engaged in terrorism? Yes. Is Antifa, therefore, a terrorist movement? No. It is much too diverse for that description to apply.

But how do you define Terrorism if Hezbollah isn't terrorist in your oh-so-wise view?

My comment was tongue-in-cheek, m8. That's what the dorito face means.

Your sarcasm will get you nowhere with me. That is the only response I will make.

Tone-moan distraction tactics and refusing to answer reasonable questions is well known to be one of the highest argument tiers, rivalling the smug anime face.

>Movement which encourages punching Nazis
>Keeping nazis from being nazis through fear of Antifa
>Using terror to stop Nazis
>Not terrorists

Look, they may be terrorizing bad people, but they are still terrorizing people.

I and my comrades are Antifa, and we do none of those things. Methinks you are trusting a bit too much in the pundits who despise us.

So, chekovia. If the regressive left are such a liitle threat/problem then explain this?

The is the BBC here. Talk about a fall from grace.

This is getting boring.

To anyone looking, what do you think of this video.

I think it's stupid. It creates language barriers if people don't speak the same language (english).

I fail to see any regressive leftism here, BBC is not a left-wing organization despite sometimes presenting socially liberal ideals such as multiculturalism in a good light. But, notice the focus on the rule of law in the video.

Nevertheless, multiculturalism is rarely a left-right issue, moreso it's a cultural position.

Should be the right and duty of any individual to attack those who wanna genocide entire populations.

Ok, sorry. Still, the videos stupid. Multiculturalism is stupid as portrayed in the video. There should be a sense of nationalism for England and english culture. There can still be other cultures but British culture should be the one at the top/the most represented.

multiculturalism isnt positive or negative, it just is. The implementation and possible reaction is what makes is either work or not. You can have pride in being British whilst being an Indian, or a third generation Pakistani. It's not a simple subject, shouldn't treat it as such.

Ok, I think I'm a bit mislead. What does the regressive left actually believe?

From what I've seen the word regressive left means whatever some alt-right weirdos or boring centrists dislike. Example would be liberal feminists, who quite often aren't even left-wing.
I guess in a broad sense a regressive leftie is an SJW or something.

If we'd take the word regressive as literal, a regressive leftie could mean a socially conservative person who likes trade unions.

It's spelled Cekoviu. At least make it look like you're giving a tiny bit of effort, m8 (though at least you got the /tʃ/ sound right, if not the spelling).
Not particularly interested in watching the video; mind giving me a summary?

Multiculturalism is perfect for culture because it allows everybody to have their own culture, as opposed to a melting pot (or completely closed borders) where only one culture gets its way.

No it shouldn't. If you have the right and duty to attack someone for their ideals, I have the right and duty to attack anyone who has ideals I find wrong. Yes, I think the Nazis are bad. Yes, I think genocide is bad. They still have reasons to believe those ideals and they believe this ideals will make the world a better place.

I have to disagree on the last bit. Seperated cultures can lead to clashes, whilst a unified one that still has distinctions often deals within itself quite peacefully. But I don't know enough to make an actual statement.

Ja, it's essentially the hip, new version of "SJW."

If we'd take the word regressive as literal, a regressive leftie could mean a socially conservative person who likes trade unions.

And there are actually plenty of those people in Europe, Africa, and Asia. It's too bad the term has been co-opted.

Mhm, of course. Isn't there an entire party of them in Australia? Some Labour offshoot that believes in family values and stuff.

Not sure about Australia, but they're pretty popular in Eastern Europe, and authoritarian, conservative communists are a dime a dozen in Africa and the Middle East.

Well, wanting to do something and actually doing it are not the same thing.
