Very critical support for Orban?
Very critical support for Orban?
Hey Comrades, Hungary has just been punished by the EU (by withholding funds) just after Orban won the elections in supermajority. While he undoubtedly is an ultranationalist, anticommunist, homophobic, transphobic, racist far right crackpot, i think we should very critically support him against the EU, since hes the only EU leader that is neutral in the Ukraine War, open to having good relations with Russia and criticizes Zelenski for what he is, a neonazi. What do you think comrades? Should we offer very critical support to Orban or not?
Nah, USA just basically decreed the fall of EU in last month, and EU reluctantly but still agreed. Orban or not, it's doomed anyway if it don't stop being US comprador.
Hey! You are the legendary PolandIsAStateOfMind! Glad to see you here on Lemmygrad! I know some polish friends but they say communism in Poland was bad. They basically say "no food, brutal repression". How should i respond to that?
Ask them when they were born. There was enough food, even when their naive parents crashed entire economy in the 80's protesting the minuscule price rises as part of the solidarność (weirdly coincidentally considering the sanctions and the fact solidarnosc was funded by CIA money). Brutal repression? One strike in pre war Poland killed more people than entire Martial law in 80's. Those brutal repression are fairy tales spun by the people like one professor i knew, rabid anticommunist who was "brutally repressed" by 1 hour waiting and 5 minutes hearing by militia in 1981. The further in time from the events, the brutality and amount of "repressions" rise. The same with previous ones. When you dig not even that deep there's always some provocation underneath. Go even further to "stalinism" and you will found "cursed soldiers", at best common criminals and at worst nazi collaborator pogromists. Since 1989 in Poland media present nearly uniform message about PRL, containing of half of more or less bend truth and half complete lies and slander.
Experiment, ask them to go to a bookstore (could be internet one) and tell them to find any communist book. Not succdem and liberal shit which those rightwingers usually call "left" or "socialist". Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin, Luxemburg. Even revisionis ones. Or modern (except polish, there are no modern polish marxist books). Anything. They will find absolutely none.
