I agree. On the one hand i understand why they are making these errors. The imperialists use culture war issues as a weapon and it is not surprising that that would provoke a defensive and hostile reaction in so many parts of the world. On the other hand communists really should know better and should see the game that the imperialists are playing and recognize that it is detrimental to the interests of the revolution to cling to reactionary positions on these issues. By reflexively adopting the contrarian position you are allowing the enemy to determine where you stand, and they can push you into a disadvantageous stance. To win we will have to build a mass movement with a disciplined core consisting of the most advanced and most class conscious section of the proletariat. We can’t do that if we turn against some of the most marginalized people in our societies. This is not something we can afford to be on the wrong side of history on, it will cost us the support of precisely those people with the most revolutionary potential.
