Why Leftism is dangerous and not just stupid or annoyingThis is an educational post aimed at Leftcoms only, so Leftists can just ignore it and go away.
Many Leftcoms think that Leftists are just stupid and misguided, and that eventually they can be "converted" via education or being shown to be wrong via real world events. This is an extremely misguided and dangerous thought.
Most Leftists are not stupid and misguided. Rather, they are intelligent Nationalists who maliciously, consciously and successfully divert anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist energies into generating support for whatever their favorite nation/ethnicity/ideology is.
Leftists are fundamentally pro-capitalist and pro-narionalist. If any real worker revolution or revolt occurs, leftists will arise to co-opt those groups and neutralize them and fold them back into their specific nationalist program and political economy.
Most importantly, if any real communist person or group attempts to prevent this co-option, leftists will kill, arrest or exile those communists.
Leftists, being the left wing of capital, should therefore not be understood as merely misguided or dumb, but they are an active and dangerous military threat to all communists, militant workers and proletarian revolutionaries.
If Leftcoms continue to follow the mental path of "haha Leftists are just dumb and they'll fall in line once reality hits" then they themselves will follow the same path as those communists who were slaughtered by Stalinists.
