I’m talking about deeply held beliefs you have that many might disagree with here or deem to be incompatible with Marxist ideology. I’m interested because I doubt everyone here is an ideological robot who all share the same uniformity in belief

    I’m not trying to be confrontational but I wanted to present Are we able to agree that not everyone is a front line communist? What I’m saying is for every Fidel, or Stalin, there’s also Paul Robeson, Albert Einstein, 2pac

    There are artists, and everyday people who want to amplify their beliefs through different means

    But i do believe that the inherit duty of a communist is to get involved whenever you can.

      i think that’s great, and i dont mean it as an insult, as you pointed out Paul Robeson avoided joining the communist party or ever calling himself a communist for really strategic and pro communist reasons.

      i think communist should be a label for people in communist parties. mostly a semantical thing

        No but i completely agree with your point, like all I’m pointing out is our movements have also been amplified by people outside of the Frontline that Consider themselves socialists.

        We need more artist, scientists, lawyers, public figures, athletes, etc on board because that always provides a good gateway for their followers to explore their political beliefs

          Personally, I think we should want anyone and everyone who supports a transition to socialism. Even in the extreme bILLIonAres so long as they understand their role to play shouldn’t be in any form of leadership. Ideological purity should be melted away in the light of materialist reality. Western communists have been tricked into publicly outing themselves and fighting with one hand and two feet bound together by “praxis.”
