    First of all, I don’t know who “Katrina Garcia” is. I think you may be referring to Karina Garcia of PSL

    Autocorrect got me, fixed it now, thank you.

    PSL is not an electoralist organization despite running candidates.

    PSL doesn’t do shit all other than running spoiler candidates in elections. They are silent outside of election cycles. They’re happy to just continue taking in campaign funds to line their own pockets like hypocrites.

    Secondly, you do not understand accelerationism.

    So I was right.

    That’s the role of a vanguard party.

    Vanguardism is a futile effort and you know it. It’s never worked and it never will work.

    Sixth, allegations of LLM use, as well as the idea that I claim not to reside in the US. I do not use LLMs for my comments, this is completely baseless.

    Baseless sure, but I’d call it gut instinct. Especially when LLMs love numbered lists.

    Further, I have always claimed to be a Statesian, and have never once claimed that I am not.

    My apologies, I confused you for Davel, because you’re basically the same collective fan club.

    Finally, the idea that Marxist-Leninist theory stopped being written a year ago.

    I never claimed it didn’t, but theory is meaningless when it’s just an endless cycle of iteration with nothing being put into practice. When you’re working off of a corpus of theory developed from a century-old sociopolitical context that no longer exists, you have to peel back further to address the flawed assumptions that early theorists made, but instead it’s been crystallized. It’s the same way one could claim that Christian scripture is still developed because different denominations will rewrite sections of their holy text and reinterpret doctrine all the time, and yet it’s somehow still infallible. Same flawed assumptions.

    Are you organized? If no, then that should be your number one task. Not whoever you vote for, which does less for political struggle than organizing does.

    I am organized, but thank you for your constructive feedback. Now kindly find some other thread to go shout into the void.

      PSL does far more than running candidates. From education programs, to fighting local struggles for unionizing, political struggle, and training organizers, the bread and butter of PSL’s work is at the local level and connecting it to the entire struggle. PSL is not “silent,” Liberation News is active, as are local PSL branches in engaging with what is actually important.

      Secondly, the fact that I corrected you on accelerationism does not mean I am an accelerationist. I am not.

      As for vanguardism being futile and never working, this is patently false. From Russia to China to Vietnam to Cuba to Korea and beyond, vanguards have been successful in waging revolutionary struggle. Marxist-Leninists carry forward the vanguard strategy because it is proven, and effective.

      Defending your accusation of LLM use just because I sometimes list out my points is absurd, and incredibly bad-faith. You couldn’t even be bothered to verify who you were speaking to, and feel plenty comfortable accusing me without verification. This is just sloppy behavior.

      As for the idea that Marxist-Leninist ideas have not been put into practice, again, this is wrong. Socialist states have only ever been established via Marxism-Leninism, we have over a century of Marxism-Leninism being put into practice. Even within the US, organizations like the Black Panther Party saw success using Marxism-Leninism. This is another baseless point you dropped without context.

      Glad you’re organized, keep it up. Maybe stop fedposting though, advocating adventurism will get you got.
