How is it possible to be a marxist and say the most utterly deranged things possible? It’s simple. They’re not marxist.

    If lesser-evilism would also benefit the proletariat more overall than not, then yes. It would be. But lesser-evilism relies on the fact that you’re delaying the inevitable. Capitalism would eventually destroy quality of life.

    Not with critical support. Russia, even if it is bigoted, will benefit the global proletariat more than not. That’s because Russia is fighting against a unipolar imperialist power, and destroying the grip of the western world would make revolutions and potential revolutions much easier.

        I would recommend you to read Stalin’s “Foundation of Leninism”, which is based on a cycle of lectures Stalin did in the 20’s. Especially relevant is the chapter 6, where Stalin explains exactly how that which we call “critical support” works.
