  • I don’t think leading by example is always the best approach. It depends on context and circumstances and case-by-case basis.

    Leading by example can lead to your enemies more easily exploiting opportunities to undermine socialism and anti-imperialist states, since you would primarily be focused on yourself and leaving your allies more open.

    I think it’s extremely unfair to paint assisting revolutions as being anywhere equivalent to “exporting revolution”, that is almost always projection from capitalist states.

    That being said, both approaches have their strengths.














  • Even if settler-colonialism was common throughout the ancient world, that doesn’t excuse it happening today. Remind them that rape and slavery were common throughout the ancient world as well.

    The point is that collectively speaking, the vast majority of humanity rightfully agrees that rape, genocide, slavery, colonialism, and unprovoked murder should belong in the dustbins of the past, to not be repeated going forward.

    Israel, the U.S., Britain and India (the Kashmir region is arguably Indian colonialism) are the only or primary countries still engaged in settler-colonialism, and actively holding humanity back, and these countries must be completely destroyed or rebuilt into socialist states.
