>If the imperialists’ ‘meticulous design’ is really to be thwarted, then the main task should not be to support the Nepalese State, but to build a united revolutionary alternative power center in the interests of the workers-peasants-middle class in the ongoing battle against the Nepalese State.But the rest of it was terrible, all the author had to contribute is
>Even if this ‘meticulous design’ is using the justified anger of the people, the struggle for social change must be fought through trusting the people and revolutionary communist politics.And that's cope, that's not how you can fight a class struggle. Lenin didn't trust the people when they supported war or SRs, socialist construction was also not done by simply trusting the people in any country. Mao arguably leaned into this direction and that got Chinese people and communists into a pickle more than once.
I agree that of course there is a lot to learn from the people, but we already know the tired NED cliches about muh nepo babies and the tales of people's righteous anger at them. That's what they tried to pull in my country to conduct regime change. I "learned from the people" and it was not that deep, most of them clearly just did it because that's what the cool kids do or vaguely because nepo babies bad and government bad.
At the same time, screams of CIA meddling are mostly cope. Political change is notorious for being one of the most unpredictable things. People tend to not give credit to the autonomy and strength of local reactionary forces, which always do the heavy lifting 100% of the time. CIA or others may help out with money and expertise, but they are not locals, they can't do it for them. It's in some ways analogous to the dynamic USSR and communist parties in other countries used to have before WWII.
In other words, CIA is not an excuse for idiocy. Five eyes leftists are actually pretty good at not falling for this kind of stupid language, and they are right at the origin of it. They keep saying that it's CAPITAL and CAPITALISM. Not oligarchs or extractivism or nepotism or authoritarianism or any of that gaslighting liberal diarrhea that describes western countries even better than the ones they are mostly aimed against while conveniently avoiding the topic of private property.
