    If everyone here is a communist, then again, which bystanders are you trying to convert? The rest of your comment is more dodging, and calling polls “cherry picked” even after proving that the data is actually towards the median sample size for high-confidence data. This is silly.

        All of the readers who have popped by seem to be siding with me, that’s why I question your strategy here. Your arguments have fallen so flat they’ve legitimized me, if that’s not a strategic failure I’m not sure what is.

            I’ve already got my stances all clear and out in the open, from my stances on the Soviet prison system to what “authoritarian” even means in practice. I’m a Marxist-Leninist, again my opinons are fairly standard for Marxist-Leninists. Again, who are you doing this for?

                If it’s for yourself, then you would do well to engage more with the arguments, rather than dismiss them outright. The point of the dialectical method is to come to a higher understanding by engaging with opposition, not avoiding it.

                Either way, I answered the other thread.

                    I fail to understand how trying to come to a better understanding through opposed argument works if you reject making arguments, but you do you.
