human behaviour

One word away from "human nature". I hope you understand that our behaviour changes with our environment, e.g. our economic system. The behaviour seen right now is under a system that encourages e.g. competition, and one where if a capitalist (the owner of a company) does something that is nice, but lowers profit, a more ruthless one will likely take their place.

I encourage you to read theory, see Cowbees list for recommendations.

No. On the people hating on hexbear and saying they are tankies/not real leftists

Where is that Parenti quote...

If communists in the United States played an important role struggling for the rights of workers, the poor, African-Americans, women, and others, this was only their guileful way of gathering support among disfranchised groups and gaining power for themselves. How one gained power by fighting for the rights of powerless groups was never explained. What we are dealing with is a nonfalsifiable orthodoxy, so assiduously marketed by the ruling interests that it affected people across the entire political spectrum.

It was from Blackshirts and Reds.

I have no idea where you are getting the intention to bid when the admins have repeatedly stated the opposite.

Wtf are you talking about??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ???

Thats one user being unhappy with how the system functions

They are clearly blaming the admin going AWOL and not paying, and themselves for not getting the domain transfered.

Despite saying Davel banned you from "everywhere he could", you haven't been permanently banned from .ml, despite the fact that clearly you should have been

I think Lumelore is starting of at anti-communism, and working her way from there. It leads to some weird stuff like this.

It says that anyone could propose a candidate, and that the person elected in that specific election wasn't part of the [Communist] Party, making it somewhat likely they weren't a communist.

But a better question, is why is it important that they can vote for non-communists? What else should they vote for? Fascists? Liberals that wish to destroy the Soviet system and institute capitalism, thereby making the lives of the vast majority of people worse? Chapter XVII goes over this to some extent, but I of course do recommend reading the entire book.

No mention of being able to vote for non-communists

?????

Anybody present had the right to propose a candidate, the one who was elected was not personally a member of the Party
