When I first got into DemSoc stuff, I talked to a few Patsocs online, even knew one in person. It was always good talking about Unions and large corporations and stuff, Capatalism 101 basically, and they were even cool with anti-war stuff, but if you prod a little further there’s not much more substance, a lot of wishy-washy opinions on trans people or Black Liberation stuff. To be clear, they were rarely (except a few online) against these groups outright, but usually they would be like “comms should focus on what’s more important before focusing on social issues.” Which WOULD make sense if the social issues currently existing were just “what’s your favorite food?” “What’s your preferred method of pronouncing the word Carribean?” It’s “should women be allowed bodily autonomy?” “Should White Supremacy be allowed in Police Forces?” “Should Trans people be allowed to EXIST?” Like if you don’t care about these issues, then you aren’t really a communist, you’re just pissed at your boss

For the top part only, but yeah. I didn’t feel like reversing all the top parts of my image.

The quote is from Marxism and the National Question, the very work the patsocs misuse to justify their characterization of some oppressed nations as legitimate.
