View Full Version : Who are these people?
Agent Ducky
14th February 2012, 02:21
Okay, so I have my Skype name public on my profile on Revleft.
Every now and then I get Skype contact requests from completely random people off Revleft. I can understand if it's someone I've seen before/have talked to, but these people are completely random. They're almost always random MLs/Hoxhaists (one was named "Enverhoxhaforever"...... :laugh: ) Sometimes they'll talk to me every once in a while. It's just awkward, though. And from these conversations I can't seem to derive a reason why they added me.
So what is this? Does anyone else get random MLs (or anyone?) new to Revleft randomly adding them? Why do I, for some reason, bring all the tankies to the yard? Don't they see I'm an anarchist? I know it's not to argue with me because they don't do that.
ComradeGrant theorizes it's solely because I'm a female and they're a bunch of immature 13 year olds. But it seriously doesn't make sense to me.

Ugly fiends doing terrible things and we will all ride the whirlwind on this one.

I had a Hoxhaist add me on FB a few weeks ago, even though my politics clearly says "Anarcho-Syndicalist" and I have my Sabo-cat showing. He posts more anti-anarchist statuses than anti-capitalist. I asked why he did it so often, and rather than get a direct answer, he/they proceeded to go on rants of how M-L is scientific and anarchism isn't revolutionary. Opinions aside, I asked him why he couldnt answer the question (instead of going on irrelevant rants) so eventually him and his horde of state-communists attacked me today. I wasn't even attacking or arguing against their positions, I was merely asking questions and defending my thoughts (never once lashed out at them), and they were completely rude, condescending, and hostile.

Defriended one Die Linke guy after I saw he was a fan of Bak Shalom, the zionist platform in die linke. Their statement on the freedom flottilla was basically IDF copy paste. Not to mention they've campaigned to kick out my german comrades from Die Linke.

Enverhoxhaforever is a new member here from China. He is pretty young, I think, so we shouldn't really tease him. Good for him for trying to make friends, I guess.

Recipient of the "Most Amusing" Chit-Chat Award. Boom.
It bugs me when people post shit like this on random threads in Chit-Chat. I could understand random attention-wanting threads like "get to know me better" or whatever from someone who is new/doesn't post, but this makes fuckall sense to post on this thread. Why does it matter who I am?
But yeah, the MLs on the internet are probably why there's Ron Paul supporters on the internet.
My observation is that internet culture at large thinks the Soviet Union (at least its imagery and references to it) are cool (Soviet Tetris song, Lenin cat, etc.) and internet tankies capitalize off of this. They adopt that imagery because they like it, and it's controversial. Gives them something to talk about. And the internet provides a unique environment for them to cultivate their ideas. And so you end up with people defending mass dictatorships, etc.

They're mostly Tankies.You think that anyone who opposes the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan is an evil opportunist who wants world jihad against the civilizing mission of Soviet social-imperialism. You also have defended the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia using the "they were counter-revolutionary" argument.

Hoxha maintained a consistent view: the Soviet invasion was a fascist-like aggression against a sovereign state. Both the Soviet and Czechoslovak revisionists had to be fought against for both advanced capitalism.
You didn't just oppose the Soviets in afghanistan.... You supported the Muhajadeen.No, Hoxha supported the Afghan people in their battle with Soviet social-imperialism and neo-colonialism. It was up to the Marxist-Leninists of Afghanistan to rally the people against both the reactionary Mujahidin and the reactionary neo-colonial administration.
Don't you support the Soviet attack on Hungary? Hypocritical idiot....Hoxha backed the intervention in Hungary but noted that it was the Khrushchevites who forced that situation on the Hungarian people in the first place by rehabilitating Imre Nagy and other supposed "victims" of the "Stalin personality cult."

Hoxha maintained a consistent view: the Soviet invasion was a fascist-like aggression against a sovereign state. Both the Soviet and Czechoslovak revisionists had to be fought against for both advanced capitalism.
And the same could be said about Hungary, no?
I never supported the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia, however, the "good guy creative socialism" that was demanded by members of hte masses simply wasn't realistic in their current situation.
All I was trying to point out, was, "Socialism with a human face"(Zizek) isn't possible in circumstances where you're surrounded by International Imperialism, on behalf of both the Soviet Union and the United States.
I furtherly added, that, the criticisms that were made against the Czech status quo were not enough, in that, most of the policies made by the Czech Bourgeoisie(No free speech, no free press, paranoia) were of absolute necessity to defend the current state of affairs in place against International Imperialism. Tito, etc. became relaxed on Such issues, and you ended up with CIA funding of several nationalist gangs all across Yugoslavia, with an eventual devastating and horrific war (That isn't to say Yugoslavia wouldn't have collapsed, anyway).
You're an opportunist. You'll oppose Soviet "revisionism" and "aggression" in Czechoslovakia, but you'll root on the same thing (by your standards) in Hungary, because Hoxha did.
And, you still have yet to validate your claims with evidence, of myself "Supporting Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia".
No, Hoxha supported the Afghan people in their battle with Soviet social-imperialism and neo-colonialism. It was up to the Marxist-Leninists of Afghanistan to rally the people against both the reactionary Mujahidin and the reactionary neo-colonial administration.
Right, and Marxist-Leninist equals who? The tiny group of jack-off hoxhaists who did fuck all but lapdance the muhajadeen in Afghanistan? (Similar to Communist parties in the middle east today, in some places?)
You don't have the slightest grasp of materailism whatsoever. As Communists, we say fuck you to "the people", as "The people" don't exist. It saddens me a so-called Marxist believes believes that a collective group of class interests that cross class boundaries exists.
In Afghanistan, you're either a dog of the land owners, or a soldier for the "Neo Colonial regime". There isn't an in between.
Hoxha backed the intervention in Hungary but noted that it was the Khrushchevites who forced that situation on the Hungarian people in the first place by rehabilitating Imre Nagy and other supposed "victims" of the "Stalin personality cult."
Sure, if you have your head up your ass.

Do you actually think I give a fuck about what Hoxha's opinion on anything is?

I fail to see how Ismail is any worse than a lot of other members here. At least he usually just quotes Hoxha rather than just saying "fuck you" or "your a moron" to everyone he disagrees with.
They're mostly Tankies.
Only on certain other forums that pander to those who just like playing them in computer games (who generally still dislike Stalin, know nothing about Marxism and just like the Red Army and nuclear bombs). Most M-Ls are are hardly Tankies anymore than most Anarchists are "cool-dude-webel-webels-against-society (actually that may be the majority :laugh: ) or Trotskyiats are middle-class college intellectuals.
I believe we could attribute such an unfortunate circumstance for the same reason some of the only supporters of Ron Paul are on the Internet:
The Internet itself is a cesspool if batshit insane creatively constructed ideologies.
Which I guess may be the reason there are so many Left Communists here. They are almost like computer viruses due to the fact they exist almost solely on the internet.
High school kids are told communism means everyone is equal. For their bourgeois-rational minds, this is very appealing, etc.
I have noticed one minute M-Ls are "old farts" and boring middle-aged men looking back to the gold old days of the Cold War, and then the next moment they are ""high school kids"; we do have a few high schoolers, though not the majority, however they are generally mature which is something that cannot be said about many "adults" who profess to being leftists. Most non-M-Ls on the internet seem to be high schoolers anyway so this is largely irrelevant.
A better question: Why are there so many MLs on the internet.
There are a lot less on the internet than fighting on the frontline in revolutions all over South America, Asia and Africa; the exact opposite of almost all other tendencies.

You know all this bullshit about opportunism would have made sense if Revleft was an union, or some protest, or anyother kind of working-class organisation or demonstration without a specific ideological affiliation, but no, this is a internet forum, whose purpose is debate, calling an user an opportunist because his post cleary expressed his ideas is simply innapropriate, unatural and unjustified.

It's funny because despite trying to put your little feud with Ismail as struggle against the Hoxha-qoute driven degeneration of the idyllic chit-chat threads, in the end you cleary slip that this madness is nothing but politically driven. The truth is none of the hoxhaists here are little passive dogs to be called robots, hiveminds or immature creatures that only exist on the internet, actually most would be doing the same thing he does, if they had the time, energy and most of all the bloody patience to do this. This shitty ''Hoxhaist are stupid, hurrr'' trend has always been around chit-chat, I am surprised it hasn't been elevated to meme status yet.

Socialism is human, it's inherently receptive to humanity because it is built and maintained by the overwhelming number of humans on this earth. You mention Žižek, a metaphysical academic with ties to Lady GaGa, which is nice because he backed the crushing of the London riots. Some "Marxist" and advocate for a "human face."
Right, and Marxist-Leninist equals who? The tiny group of jack-off hoxhaists who did fuck all but lapdance the muhajadeen in Afghanistan? (Similar to Communist parties in the middle east today, in some places?)I don't recall the pro-Hoxha group in Afghanistan working with the Mujahidin. Perhaps you'd like to give evidence that they did?
You don't have the slightest grasp of materailism whatsoever. As Communists, we say fuck you to "the people", as "The people" don't exist. It saddens me a so-called Marxist believes believes that a collective group of class interests that cross class boundaries exists.Of course you oppose the people of Afghanistan, you think that they are "backwards" and that they must be "civilized" by a superpower.
As in the case of all the efforts of Soviet social-imperialism to dominate other countries, in Afghanistan the Marxist-Leninists supported the people, meaning all those forces led, naturally enough, by the working-class which opposed attempts by the Soviets to economically and politically dominate the affairs of the country, and to oppose the efforts of the Soviets to carry out mass executions of "sympathetic" elements, whose sympathy for the Mujahidin was a direct cause of the neo-colonial occupation of the country and their persecution of Marxist-Leninist elements which they attacked just as much as they fought the Mujahidin.
In Afghanistan, you're either a dog of the land owners, or a soldier for the "Neo Colonial regime". There isn't an in between.The hallmark of a Brezhnevite: back imperialists or back reactionaries. There is apparently no proletarian road; one must defend either Soviet neo-colonialism or by default he is backing the dreaded Mujahidin.

I can't help it if you defend the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan. Apparently opposing Soviet social-imperialism is an evil position to take.
Hoxha noted in his diary in January 1983 that:
"The build-up of the resistance and struggle of the patriotic Afghan people rejoices us be cause, apart from other things, it confirms the Marxist-Leninist thesis that the peoples, however small and unarmed they may be, when it comes to defending their freedom, independence and honour, can launch powerful attacks on and triumph over savage enemies, such as the American imperialists and the Soviet social-imperialists, who are much better armed and more powerful than they are.
The people of Afghanistan have a history of heroic struggles against foreign occupiers. They offered forcible resistance to the influence and pressure of the Russian tzars. They fought the British colonialists for decades on end. They waged three wars against British armies, teaching them a lesson they will never forget. In 1921 they drove them out of the country completely and won their national independence. This strengthens our conviction that the Afghan people will triumph over the Soviet occupiers, too, and that they will emerge from this struggle even more conscious about the need for the defence of their national and social rights."
(Enver Hoxha. Reflections on the Middle East. Tirana: 8 Nėntori Publishing House. 1984. pp. 442-443.)
And in December that same year:
"Frequently when I read reports or see on the TV shots of the fighting and daring actions which the Afghan fighters carry out against powerful formations or motorized columns of the Soviet army of occupation, jumping from rock to rock amongst the snow and ice, the rain and countless other difficulties, and armed only with rifles, my mind goes back to our glorious National Liberation War, to the heroism and sacrifices of our valiant, patriotic and revolutionary people. Of course, our war was at a much higher level and much better organized and, above all, it was led by our Communist Party on the basis of the teachings of Marxism-Leninism. Our people, rallied in the Democratic Front organization, closely united, without distinction as to region or religion, were more conscious about the ideals for which they had to and did fight and about the character of the state which they would build on the ruins of past regimes, after the victory. Nevertheless, I repeat that the struggle of the people of Afghanistan is a just struggle, and the Afghan patriotic fighters deserve to be honoured and respected by all the patriotic forces of the world, to be supported so that they can step up their liberation war even further until they drive the Soviet occupiers completely from their homeland. And, whether the Soviet social-imperialists and their local lackeys like it or not, this will certainly be realized in the not too distant future. The people of Afghanistan will regain their freedom and independence."
(Ibid. pp. 530-531.)

Also in Albania a common name after the 60's was Marenglen (which stood for Marx-Engels-Lenin), which was acceptable for both boys and girls. Other names used were Proletar and Stalin since religiously-based names (Pjetėr, Paulin, Stjefėn, Ndoc, Kosta, Kolė, Marka, etc.) tended to be restricted.

I don't really find them offensive - just humorous. It's a common technique used by people arguing on the internet - stating your case then adding a few buzzwords to "reinforce" your point - when it really just makes you look immature. Fact is, if I took the buzzwords and insults out of your post, there would maybe be a kosher argument there.

Why?!? Ignore for a moment that basic science =/= history/philosophy/economics. You could tell me that the earth is not flat, give me an explanation as to why, and be done with it. You accomplish nothing by calling me a "fucking idiot" - and it really just makes you look like an immature ass.

This thread is about random things attesting to the glories of Hoxha.
"Marriage is a central topic in the Kanun [traditional tribal law] and hedged about with rules...
Enver Hoxha, tried to modify these rules... discounting fictive kinship as an obstacle and advocating marriages for love. He encouraged young couples who worked together not to feel ashamed of their feelings, not to be unreasonably dictated to by their elders, decrying the customary use of matchmaker intermediaries (shkuesi). He succeeded in reducing the number of cradle betrothals, as well as marriages between people who had never seen each other. On the very rare occasions where a couple married for love, or married in spite of fictive kinship ties, Enver Hoxha would personally write them a letter of congratulation, praising those involved for breaking out of the bonds of backwardness....
I came across several instances of marriages approved by Hoxha. One involved a vet from the Mirditan village of Grykė Orosh (a Catholic) who in the 1970s married a Muslim girl, Hairja, whom he had got to know while he was working in the town of Laē. A chance meeting with Hairja on a bus in the highlands of Mirdita led me to ask her how come she was from Orosh but had a Muslim name. She told me that against her parents' will she and her husband had married for love. Her family broke off all relations with her, but after she had been married for six months they received a letter from Enver Hoxha congratulating them on their daughter's praiseworthy marriage 'throwing aside the intolerance of superstition and faith'."

GallowsBird
18th February 2012, 10:32
Gee..... I wonder why.
Yes, because quoting Hoxha is an argument.
Incidentally, it's "you're a moron".
Incidentally, most seem to write "your a moron" (rather than "you are a moron") hence I quoted it that way. It is generally a typo I presume.
lol, just like every other marxist-leninist?
That is not a valid sentence so don't try to criticise anyone else's posts. Firstly sentences should start with a capital letter; secondly, "lol" is not a valid English word and thirdly Marxist-Leninist should be capitalised. Before you try to criticise the grammar of another member's posts, as you do to almost everyone these days to try to seem intelligent (you don't you just look like you are ignorant and over compensating), at least have nothing short than excellent grammar lest you look hypocritical and that person starts criticising your own posts.
Yes, yes, the exact opposite. Yes, the whole fate of world revolution is in the hands of a small group of Marxist-Leninists as they bravely fight in the trenches against capitalists with their bare hands.
Are you really saying that in the Third World there aren't many Marxist-Leninist or Marxist-Leninist-Maoist revolutionaries? Wow. Yeah we all know that all the real revolutionaries in Asia and South America are Left Communist and Libertarian Socialist e-warriors fighting "the man" online.
Great, I feel much better already. I know that they can deal the death blow to capitalism with their autodidact ability to quote Hoxha.
(corrected the above to make the gap between "already" and "I" one gap as is correct in English)
Really? I always thought they can deal any sort of "death blow" by their planning of a successful guerrilla movement and actually fighting against the capitalist governments in their countries. But what do I know! :rolleyes:
Moral of the story: Rooster, don't criticise the posts of other members when your own posts leave much to be desired. Learn about the revolutionary movements in much of the world before claiming they are not in a large part Marxist-Leninist and generally don't post nonsense.

I'm sorry but deluded idiots make be both lol and rage at the same time.
I see you have been doing the grammar troll act here too, Rooster. You should probably remember that you have already been warned against doing this in another thread. Not everyone is a native English speaker and some people naturally make more typing errors because they write fast or are just more carefree whilst posting (not expecting an immature, wannabe bully to be marking every little error they make in their posts) online.
Also, you should probably write ''lol'' as LOL or even ''LOL'' if you want to criticize others due to grammar. ''Lol'' is not an English word*, ''LOL'' is an abbreviation (for ''laughing out loud''). Also I think you mean ''me'' not ''be''.
There is no real problem with you making these error, of course, but it is pretty hypocritical trying to flame others for making errors whilst making them yourself.
Why not grow a dose of maturity and stop trying to flame people for making typing mistakes?
*It is, however, a Welsh word that means ''nonsense'', so your post would mean ''Deluded idiots make me both nonsense...''. Actually, maybe that is what you meant.
