In simpler terms, you yourself have spent ample time in this very comment section criticizing liberals and then turning right back around and saying that if liberals criticize tankies, they're waging a 'two-front war' and actually helping the fascists.
I didn't bring it up because I dislike tankies and their useful idiots, but I'm not a supporter of capitalism, certainly not in the long-term. And a planned economy is certainly fucking not the only way forward.
The only thing MLs bring is a complete misunderstanding of Marx's work in exchange for some really strange idealistic pseudo-religious dogma about vanguards and just murdering enough kulaks to REALLY achieve communism this time, honest; completely ignoring the historical dialectic which was so fucking central to Marx and Engel's theories.
You seem to think that socialism/communism in America would be like Soviet Russia. It could be, would that not be better for the planet? It may be something better? I’m intrigued. What economy would be better for the planet than a planned economy? Bartering? Sex for rations?
