Hello, dear comrades.

This is something I've been thinking a lot recently. Since I am Chilean, I am well aware of the violations of Human Rights ordered and carried out by Pinochet and his minions during his narcodictatorship. The so-called opposition to Pinochet that encompased social democrats, opportunists (such as the vile Christian Democratic Party, the organisation that received the most funding from the CIA), and many revisionist organisations essentially took the chance to use Human Rights as a tool to gain political and electoral support.

It is this very revisionist 'left' that is also the first to condemn and dennounce AES because they aim to apply the Dictatorship of the Proletariat. For example, former president Michelle Bachelet, who was allegedly imprisoned, tortured, and exiled during Pinochet's dictatorship, followed the Western psyop about the Uyghur people in Xinjiang by stating that the People's Republic of China was responsible for 'high violations of human rights' when she was the UN High Commissioner. Ironic, given that she violated the Mapuche people's Human Rights during her first presidency.

From what I've seen, what is understood as Human Rights in the zeitgeist is quite 'liberal'. I certainly do not remember mentions of liberation of nor power to the working class or any other concepts related to Marxist theory and practice. Moreover, organisations such as Human Rights Watch are the first to condemn and influence the public opinion on Cuba, the People's Republic of China, the DPRK, etc. even when they are in a constant struggle to protect and help the working class and its many peoples.

Finally, the rise of fascism and the far right worldwide and the abuse of terms such as 'freedom of speech' and 'freedom' in general to spew lies, revisionism, anti-science, anti-communism, etc. show us that they have no qualms in also using Human Rights as a tool. However, if history has taught us anything, it's that this kind of scum who trample over them and also use revisionism for their political ends.

So, how are we as Marxist-Leninists supposed to understand Human Rights and tackle the problem of non-Marxists taking advantage of them?

Cheers

Hello everybody.

I must confess it's been years since I studied the French Revolution.

One of the periods I remember is The Terror, which was reportedly led by Maximilien Robespierre.

However, I would like to know what you, know about his role during the French Revolution. Was he a brutal 'dictator'? Are stories about him accurate or exaggerated?

Kind regards

Recently, I did some research about elections in socialist countries. I found good sources about Cuba, Vietnam, and the People's Republic of China (unfortunately, I couldn't find anything reliable on the DPRK).

I would really like to know how elections worked in the Soviet Union between 1917 and 1953 before Kruschev.

I know there was a Constituent Assembly in January 1918, but I must confess I am quite ignorant about this period.

Looking forward to your answers.

Hello there. It’s nice to meet you all.

Some months ago, I did research on the A’C’P. It’s quite horrifying that many people cannot see the evident psyop they are. I wouldn’t be surprised if they clap whenever Hammoud or Hinkle publicly give a reactionary statement.

What I am interested in is the Midwestern Marx Institute, which I glossed over. I know many notorious members are part of that nazbol abomination, but I haven’t read much about them.

From what I’ve seen, people like Carlos Garrido behave similarly to Jackson Hinkle when he goes abroad. They pretend to be internationalists/anti-imperialists, but they behave in the exact opposite way in the US.

I’ll be looking forward to your answers.

Kind regards
