        Just a note, we don’t really allow MLMs or Gonzaloites here. What’s your position on modern cuba, and China?

            You realize also that MLMs do not support Cuba either, right? They consider it “in the camp of Soviet social imperialism”.

            How do you feel about Gonzalo?

                  Well, it depends, im not personally and MLM, but my understanding is that the Philippines’ Maoism is different. Again, I may be wrong, but I think they believe that MLM was synthesized but not by Gonzalo. Depends, still though.

                    Philippines Maoism inherits the ideology of the Cultural Revolution and the Gang of Four. Gonzalo did the same thing. Hence it’s no surprise that Sison adopted the same maoist tactics as Gonzalo did in regards to theory. In terms of praxis, they were also both incredibly adventurist. Basically, Maoism in the Philippines is identical to the Maoism in Peru. We can draw a lot of parallels between the theories given by Gonzalo and the actions of the CPP. So even if MLM wasn’t synthesised by Gonzalo, he was definitely a big contributor to MLM theory, to the point where you would be a revisionist if you would denounce him.

                  Us poor Asian folks. They’ve trapped Sri Lanka, Laos, and Tajikistan in debt. My country the Philippines narrowly escaped a similar fate had Dutertwat not had stopped clock moment and pulled out of the deal.

              Look at the shit they’re doing here in the Philippines and SEA in general. They’ve been ilegallly fishing a few miles within sovereign territory.

              Worse yet our bourgeois “government” (read: big oil funded circus) is run by corporate shills, clowns, and fascists.

              This is one reason, I have a few others

                The South China Sea is a complicated territory that cannot be answered through the use of sea territories only. Actually, in regards to the ‘imperialism’ of the South China Sea, China only has 8 installations within the South China Sea meanwhile the Philippines has 10. Vietnam has 25, Malaysia 7, and Taiwan has 2.

                So your claim that China is actively imperialising the territory is false. If anything, Vietnam is the one that is actively doing it. But like I said, this question cannot be answered through territorial claims alone.
