it was a real wake up call when I saw ancoms and ultralefts decrying “authoritarianism” in places like Bolivia and Venezuela and Cuba. If these places are irredeemable to you, then you’re really not aiming to accomplish anything. makes me laugh when I see their example societies, and they’re celebrating some Korean gangster warlord in Manchuria. Yeah, if they were alive in the 30s, and imperialists wanted that guy gone, they definitely would’ve found it intolerably authoritarian too.
