How is it possible to be a marxist and say the most utterly deranged things possible? It’s simple. They’re not marxist.

      I would recommend you to read Stalin’s “Foundation of Leninism”, which is based on a cycle of lectures Stalin did in the 20’s. Especially relevant is the chapter 6, where Stalin explains exactly how that which we call “critical support” works.

      If you ask me it beats the moral hand wringing about what systems are acceptable and what peoples are worthy of solidarity. You don’t have to be democraticly centralist socialists to gain whatever support I can offer and I dont expect to see a world full of homogeneous leninists when it is time to rest.
