If the social democrats were willing to contribute to the anti-imperialist struggle, like libertarians are, we Marxists would gladly join with them in the anti-NATO united front, like we have with the libertarians. But the social democrats haven’t chosen that righteous path, and neither have most of the other non-Marxist elements of the American left. That includes the “red libs” who claim to represent Marxism-Leninism, yet have reacted to the recent escalations in the anti-imperialist struggle by denouncing Russia’s special operation, attacking the anti-NATO united front, or both.
And yet the points he makes about the active or passive support of much of the western left for Nazism and imperialism have still not been addressed by his critics who instead simply dismiss him using guilt by association and slapping derogatory labels on him that have never been demonstrated to be true.
I am not saying there isn’t legitimate criticism that can and should be made of the “united front” strategy that he endorses, but i find it very disappointing that so far the dismissals of his articles that I have seen from some comrades here have been superficial, lacking in substance or argument and based in ad hominems.
I expect a higher level of discourse on this platform.
