    1. The Soviet Union should’ve done more to export the revolution to other countries

    2. Because they didn’t do this, the Soviet Union betrayed the revolution

    3. Because they betrayed the revolution, they were basically the worst thing ever, worse even than capitalist countries like the US

    4. Because the US is the lesser evil, it should export the revolution freedom and democracy to other countries.

    Trotskyists just want to invade countries and call it liberation, it’s really a short jump into becoming neocos imo.



  • They did also use grenades.

    One of the organization’s founders later said she felt like they turned to these international terror attacks because the left’s lack of success domestically made them feel desperate, and that as radical students they probably should’ve just gone back home to their communities and advocated for their beliefs. The classic, “I’m ready to die for the revolution! But talking to people? No thanks!”











  • Also I don’t think Zohran’s opinions on Israel would’ve swayed this election one way or the other. I still probably would’ve voted for him if he said the generic pro-Israel democrat talking points because of the material things he was offering, and I imagine a lot people who are pro-Israel but aren’t completely rabid would’ve done the same the other direction.

    It’s absolutely wild to me how much foreign policy seemed to be focused on in a mayoral race. Sure, it’s a particularly important mayoral race, but it’s not like the mayor decides whether to send arms to Israel or not. The only point they could raise in the debate was whether the candidate would visit Israel - a completely symbolic gesture. Should I be interrogating my local dogcatcher about their thoughts on the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia?
