I thought I was an Auth-Left, but turns out I’m a Lib Left? Am I allowed here in lemmygrad.ml? And what idealogical learning, unlearning and changes I should make to myself?

    Haha, ok, but my question is, if I still think I am Marxist leninist, and I support Stalin, mao, castro and others to some degrees, and defend their idealogies, mostly in arguments, but still having some levels of mercy i(I guess because while I answered I noticed, and I was sure that I may be a lib), would make me a lib? Or woke-commie?

    And how to improve myself? I read, but what should I read more? What idealogies should I read more?

      I mean do not look into what this test says, it is essentialy a political adverstisement for the Blarite movement of the labor party, what you belive in your heart and what your actions are say far more than this test. Yes reading theory will always help, but do not pay this test a second thought

      Castro talks about how vital it is to treat enemy fighters with kindness and respect, and release them back to the enemy side - even if they come back and fight again.

      I think it’s an acceptance of the enemy’s framing to think that great Marxists were without mercy.

        I remember reading about how the Soviets used to set their enemies free, but realised that it didn’t work and they had to be harsher against them. But I cannot find it. I cannot remember what book it was. If anybody has an idea do tell me.

        And yes. It is driving me crazy.
