I found out my girlfriend has a Jiang Qing fan page and she keeps calling me a capitalist roader. I’ve been trying to explain the benefits of socialism with Chinese characteristics, but she just laughs at me and yells “REVISIONIST” anytime I bring it up.
What should I do?
Edit: thanks to those of you who took this seriously. Her parents are on vacation so she is heading to their house with a group of her French Maoist friends. We will see how our next conversation goes when she is back.
what does she want done about China? if it’s “a people’s revolution built to overthrow the PRC” then whatever, it’s in neither of your hands. if she can’t find a “revolution” she won’t support (like if she genuinely thinks the HK protests were anything but bourgeois tantruming) and propagates/defends any threat to China’s stability then she’s ideologically bankrupt, you can stay with her but like, outside of broad movement building type things you should just write her ideas on revolution and defending it off
just read a comment implying she condemns a Lot of parties - why is she like this ? just ask her why is she like this. there’s no built up movement in the West. there’s no need to keep other far leftists/communists ideologically arguing about things that are so far in the future that no communist line could possibly be predicted to come out on top yet
I’ll ask when I see her next. Her parents are gone for a bit so she is going to their house with her group of French Maoist friends.
