    I feel a lot of well intentioned communists and leftists in general don’t understand the concept of primary and secondary contradiction

        A primary contradiction is the biggest one and the one we should focus on, a secondary contradiction is a contradticion that we can think of in a later time, for example (as far as i understand it) in iraq a primary contradiction may be the U$ imperialism and occupation, and a secondary one may be iranian imperialism, its still bad, we should still condemn it, but it isn’t our primary objective at the moment.

        (i am still new to this whole theory thing, this is the best summary i could make)
