Something that’s been in my mind recently. Shit looks like it’s going to hit the fan over the next several years. Seeing how easily the population has slipped into a Russophobic rage through disinformation and propaganda shows that the seeds for fascism have already been planted here. This country’s government does everything to actively suppress communist movements and are attempting to exhaust Marxist-Leninist efforts.

I have developed two reactions to this, one cynical and one more optimistic, but I struggle to tell which one is closer to reality. The cynical side of me thinks that this country has fallen too far into the deep end and can’t be saved, that communism cannot happen in a place like this, and it’s better to leave and start elsewhere than stay and possibly die at the hands of fascists. The other part of me believes that choice could be cowardly, and it is better to stay and create communist infrastructure and protect the marginalized.

    Communism is inevitable even under fascism. WHen the nazis controlled europe during ww2 there were many guerilla movements lead by communist parties and today there are communist guerillas gaining strength in places like the Philippines and India

          Achieving communism is siding with the main vehicle of US imperialism in the Philippines?

              They are endorsing the Liberal Party candidate Leni Robredo. Their mass organizations in BAYAN are promoting her.

              They have sided with the US since 1968.

                That is an error but mass organizations have autonomy from the rest of the party so it might not be representative of the party itself.

                They have sided with the US since 1968.

                When?

                  Their main publication Ang Bayan defends Robredo and promotes her. Their mass organizations are closely tied to the CPP. Their lines are nearly indistinguishable.

                  They have sided with US imperialism by splitting the PKP-1930. Also Sison was friends with Aquino who worked closely with the CIA before Marcos executed him.

                    Can I have a source directly from communists in the Philippines. This could just be the government framing the opposition as having ties with the CPP NPA
