Anarcho-Bolshevik

Gay Russians are like a former head of the NKVD who allowed massive, unfounded arrests of innocents?

Interesting analogy.

I could do a point-by-point analysis, but for the sake of brevity I’ll touch on only a few points:

1. Representatives in Imperial America serve their class, the upper class, first and foremost.
2. Voting in a pseudodemocracy like Imperial America is usually a waste of time. Voting did not prevent Fascism in Germany, and we have no good reason to believe that it would prevent the institutionalization of neofascism in Imperial America either.
3. Most, if not all small businesses dream of making it big one day. Purchasing from them instead of corporations may be preferable in certain situations but does not accomplish all that much in the long term.

You do have a few good suggestions for resisting neofascism, but the rest of these are very inadequate, and it is odd seeing them together like this.

Reading your thread and looking at your profile, I can’t help but wonder if you are either new to antifascism or you have something to hide from us.

Oh. I never thought about that before. That is a good point. I wish that I were as smart as you.

Thalmann and the communists were going with accelerationism and straight up wanted Hitler to win, so they blocked every coalition they could.

That’s… not how the situation unfolded.

To further understand the position taken by the KPD against the SPD, Ernst Thälmann’s 1932 speech “The SPD and NSDAP are Twins” reveals how the KPD leadership envisioned its struggle against fascism in all forms. Thälmann’s incendiary speech declared that “joint negotiations between the KPD and the SPD… there are none! There will be none!”¹³

This was not to say that the KPD did not recognize the [Fascist] threat, as Thälmann articulated that “KPD strategy directs the main blow against social democracy, without thereby weakening the struggle against […] fascism; [KPD] strategy creates the very preconditions of an effective opposition to […] fascism precisely in its direction of the main blow against social democracy.”¹⁴

It is imperative to recognize, though, that the KPD only advocated the blow against the SPD leadership. As Thälmann argued, The KPD’s policy envisioned, the creation of a “revolutionary United Front policy… [that mobilized the masses from below through] the systematic, patient and comradely persuasion of the Social Democratic, Christian and even National Socialist workers to forsake their traitorous leaders.”¹⁵
