Couldn’t find any good sources in English, but thought it might be interesting to let y’all know.

      I thought it was someone who is on PCO side, leave it to them to be against the people, and they won’t disappoint

        Exactly. Also FreudianCafe is an avid PCO defender. I responded to them before on Hexbear and just like here they were hellbent on defending every single PCO stance uncritically while claiming it is the only Marxist and anti-imperialist party.

        His talking points in this very thread are the exact same stance PCO is taking on the VAT movement you can find it on their news page. Literally aligning with the right, like PCO always do.

        This person is just a reactionary in leftist clothing.

        Everyday I come closer to believing the claim that PCO is just a bunch of nazbols.

          I have no doubt about it I just believe that here on grad it’s worthy to make explicit the incoherence of the argument independently of how credible or not is the person providing the argument, the argument must be undone on it’s merits or more specifically their lack of merit

            Oh I agree 100%, I was just providing further context of this person’s views and behavior.

        Its not about having faith on PSOL it’s about trusting this particular motion, which is widely supported my many other parties, but you wanna treat PSOL as a toxic party while PCO has no problems agreeing with UNIAO or PL. Just look at what you are saying, that defending the workers in a subject that is a very historical left fight ia wrong? Who’s side are you on man?

            I have no faith in that party, although I have much less in PCO, I just think that the streets are much too valuable a space to be left to the right to be the only occupied by the right. We need to fight for what is fair and what benefits the workers, and reducing working hours is about as clearly a good goal as they come, to be against that seems very concerning.

              Pco is the only party that put people on the street about gaza. Is that an important issue? Because boulos said more or less he doest give a fuck about it

                Yeah when did I say I support Boulos or that I’m a fan of PSOL? That’s right I didn’t and you can go ahead turning the blind eye to everything wrong PCO does, in this very post there’s plenty, so you are either so fully enamored with the party that you simply don’t believe the facts or you are someone that knows all the dirt and either don’t care or agree, in any of the possibilities there is no prospect for a reasonable conversation, you will keep using PSOL as a reason to try to cool down a movement that has a lot of possibility, it carries some risk, every movement does, opportunists are always a concern, you for one must know them very well, but if we live in fear of opportunism we will live frozen allowing the right to keep growing, we (and I absolutely do not include you in this) need to seize this chance to advance real impactful participation of left forces in contact with the people, and please by all means keep PCO out of this movement, you are not missed.

                    As eloquent as I expected.

                    And very didactic that when the debate runs from the expected structure, of which you already have answers(most likely thought of by other people) at the ready you resort to trying(? Or at least I think it is) to discredit the whole thing, not a single argument not a single original thought, not an ounce of analytical thinking. You demonstrate perfectly why we don’t like the organization that you either defend or is a part of.
