    people from global north countries that have never known as little as the hardship of traveling with a weak passport when the former colony that had widespread poverty less than 40 years ago, does not cut off from all trade and participation in the global economy so that everybody can fucking Die in squalor and water wars just so they can feel like they do socialism right

      It’s worth remembering that a significant amount of accusations of revisionism towards China come from Maoist insurgents and other anti-revisionist parties. I’m not saying they are right (I didn’t read enough to confidently say yes or no), but we should acknowledge that it’s not just Western ultras.

            Fighting a protracted people’s war is certainly admirable, is it the correct strategy in all circumstances? No. Is it the right strategy in the Phillipines? It has a severe lack of results to speak for itself, instead the maoists say China’s revisionism is why they’re failing. Even if that’s the case, why would they still then continue with a PPW that is achieving very little instead of analysing concrete conditions and applying a different strategy that might be more fruitful?

              I get what you are saying, but you are critiqueing dogmatism. That is a seperate problem. Dogmatism is being closed minded towards newer theory / tactics and strategic retreats. Revisionism is the abandonment of class struggle and integrating into bourgeois politics.
