What is leftism like in your country? Bonus points if you have a meme-tier 'communist party'.

We have 3 meme-tier communist parties

Cancer.

Strictly about nigs, sluts, mental cases, sexual perverts, and empowering extremely rapacious capitalism.

Labour is a sinking ship

Lib dems are irrelevant but still popular with clueless students

Greens are the DUDE WEED LMAO party

but no legit commies have any power, even though people like to meme that Corbyn (leader of labour) is one

Extremely corrupt
PSD the biggest leftist party used to be sort of conservative and patriotic
Now they are just as corrupt as before but they are trying to switch to a progressive SJW platform.
It happens slowly because their main voter base is pensioners and old people who are religious and conservative.
There are communist parties but they dont even take part in the elections thats how irelevant they are.

There no leftism in my country. Communist party is banned here

>Labour is a sinking ship
Isn't Corbyn actually pushing labor to the left?

Pshht, watch this, kiddos.

That's why it's sinking, based Corbyn

>What is leftism like in your country?
It isn't

>There no leftism in my country.

There's no country either.

>It happens slowly because their main voter base is pensioners and old people who are religious and conservative.
How does that work with commies are supposed to be atheists?

Lenin ruined socialism desu.

...

We have three tiny irrelevant communist parties. The NDP are socdems but hopefully they will get some genuine demsocs (yes they are different things) in there soon.

They keep partitioning themselves since the FIDESZ viktory.
The socialists split and now another meme leftist party emerged.
Overall,they are disorganised and small even when they stand together.

It's just nostalgic old people who want pensions. Only communist party bigshots actually believed in M-L and atheism. In fact in a lot of ex-commie countries, one-time atheist politicians wrapped themselves in the flag of the local religion.

pension > God

Anyway PSD is the Social Democratic party, not exactly commie

He made the best of a bad situation. He's still high tier as far as leftist leaders go though. Stalin and his autistic tankie groupies are much worse.

Lenin>Trotsky>Mao and Stalin

The only ones that actually care for developing our country and managed to make us relevant globally

The dictator of Turkmenistan is a guy who used to be a CPSU member and avowed atheist who now imposes fundamentalist Islam on the nation, so...

The big leftist party is struggling to stay relevant, around 4% of the votes. If they end up above, they may get some real representation and power, if they get less, they'll barely be represented at all and be irrelevant.
We also have some to the left of them. One of them sometimes gets one representative. But overall they are irrelevant. The other communist parties are completely irrelevant.

In general, the left focuses on the poor, feminism, keeping private interests out of important society functions, immigration, protecting the environment.

We have a meme commie party, the MLPD.
(Marxist-Leninist Party of Germany)

We unironically have the biggest democratically elected party of the world

Tito>Marcos>>>Ho Chi Minh>Durruti>Makhno>Apo>Castro>Lenin>Trotsky>Kruschev>>>>>Mao>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Stalin

Wasted opportunity on the o's.

What's Die Linke up to lately? Aren't they the successor party to the East German communist party?

Everything after lenin was shit, both his theory and praxis
>muh final state imperialism
>can't understand that nes domestic markets can be created through innovation
>is shipped to Russia by Germans
>tries to create communism in backward agririan pre capitalist shithole
>destroys all the soviets
>creates totalitarian one-party state
>kill peasants en masse
>installs state capitalism
>installs extremely shitty and inefficient cebtrally planned state capitalism
>paves way for the dominant tankie ideology that ruined the 20th century left

Die Linke tries to be edgy and is divided in itself.
Not really the direct successor of the SED, but they carry on the spirit :D

>Lib dems
>leftist
I thought there were classical liberals, like very capitalist and pro-business

Every party in Duma is left. A thing called "Liberal Democratic Party" is shilling for more government control over business including alcohol monopoly.

Hey Nebojša

>tries to create communism in backward agririan pre capitalist shithole
And then it got even better because they tried creating communism in even more backwards agrarian cunts like Albania, China, and Vietnam.

Lenin never thought that socialism would be viable in Russia, he knew that it would need to develop through a stage of capitalism first in order to make socialism a possibility. Essentially his strategy was to get rid of the Tsar and hold down the fort until Rosa and co. could spark revolution in Western Europe. Obviously the revolutions of 1919 failed, so Lenin was left with an isolated backwards agrarian shithole, beset on all sides by reactionary forces both external and domestic.

Although I agree with your assessment of his lack of respect for democracy, there is definitely no justification for destroying the soviets.

You are saying this as if socialism isnt doomed from the beginning on to be hijacked by tankies.
Sure, you can start with some kurd or catalonia tier village revolution where tiny communes who are already trained in compromise with each other choose to cooperate, but this only works as long as no greater statist like Franco, Erdogan or whatever other force comes along.

It might work in a few geographical places which are not worth to be conquered like some little island group.

The far left is exactly like you see in the US videos. Screaming antifa faggots attacking other people and yelling "NO RACISTS IN OUR STREETS", a meme communist party that wants to crush the patriarchy and introduce 100% taxes on income above 1 million DKK (about 145k USD), while the head of this political party lives wealthy off of her husbands money.
Other than the far left and far right, everybody else pretty much agrees on everything, except on how much to spend on the needy.

>Although I agree with your assessment of his lack of respect for democracy, there is definitely no justification for destroying the soviets.
Lenin was the guy who originated the idea that a communist party vanguard was needed to spearhead the revolution since the masses by themselves would invariably follow reactionary ideologies.

Just silly

b&

would fuck those two blonde guys until they hate Marx

Tankie regimes aren't worth saving to begin with, they all turn into massive poor mafia states run by apparachiks. I'd much rather live in some bourgeois capitalist democracy, it's much more comfy.

Currently in power with low support
second place in the election's forecasts
There's a "new" party that consist of the ex-leaders of the student movilization of 2011 that's slowly rising in votes though
But I think our next president is going to be right-wing

If communism is so awful, why does Cuba have universal health care and employment unlike this country?

Lenin wrote a book and went through all kinds of hoops trying to prove that Russia was an industrialized capitalist economy, he certainly believed communism was possible.

His entire problem was the elitist Russian vanguard tradition in which he grew up. He never had any actual faith in people. He also interpreted Marx's theories as infallible and bent them in a way to jusify his grab of power.

>His entire problem was the elitist Russian vanguard tradition in which he grew up. He never had any actual faith in people

Yes, the traditional Russian mindset was of the ruling class whipping an enslaved, subhuman population. He also co-opted some other unpleasantries from the tsar such as political police.

They have such beautiful faces.

This happened in China as well; the CCP borrowed traditional Chinese methods of governance which also involved an all-powerful state.

Stalin was an odd case because he wasn't Russian and hadn't grown up in Russian elitist circles.

He grew up with the Caucasian tradition of the blood feud. Also he attended a ROC seminary school and was schooled in paranoic Russian nationalism, something that was alien to his native Georgia.

The left half of the most left party in our parliament is made up of actual communists that hide their powerlevel but would not hesitate to go full communism if they had popular support.

The other half are traditional social democrats/democratic socialists. This more moderate wing of the party is actually in coalition goverments in some states and even has one governor while actual social democrats/democratic socialist only barely exist in the bigger Social Democratic Party which is nowadays mostly liberal capitalist and has been one of the most influencial political organisations of this country.

There are also some smaller leftist meme parties.

>implying Corbyn isn't a Posadist-Pol Potist

The actual Communist Party of Germany is banned. I think this was some Nazi-era prohibition that was never repealed.

Yes, Die Linke is pretty divided. On one side you have the actual communists(the part of the party that was under observation of German intelligence up until very recently) and the other half of more moderate social democrats.

Ironically though, the moderates are an influential force in eastern Germany, often co-governing and even governing in coalition with a governor in one state while the more radical but less relevant faction comes mostly from western Germany.

The KPD was banned two times, in Nazi Germany and during the cold war in West Germany but the current Left Party is the legal successor (and even personal successor with some people from the GDR) of the single party that ruled the GDR.

It was a postwar prohibition to prevent the subversion of the FRG by Soviet agents.

More John Lennon than Vladimir Lenin.

Japanese commies are all just Chinese agents who want to turn Japan into a protectorate of Beijing.

>and introduce 100% taxes on income above 1 million DKK (about 145k USD), while the head of this political party lives wealthy off of her husbands money
That's ok because rich liberal douches like Lars Ulrich have their money all stored in a Cayman Islands bank account.

No. They're mostly old people with meager pensions and bitter memories of the war.

Leftism runs amok in Sweden, hence why this country is a shit hole.

They have a mild socdem wing and a classical liberal wing. Whatever wins in the area that the candidate is desu. (In the city they will act more left in the countryside more right)

goin pretty good in the west coast

Oh shut the fuck up, quit being a little bitch. Sweden is still better than any Eastern European shithole. Lots of people would kill to live in Sweden, quit crying you ungrateful nigger

Meanwhile, on the alt-right side

If you are referring to immigration that's ~35-65% the right's fault

Why don't you try living there then?

He was cleared of all charges.

>What is leftism like in your country?

If you're in Scotland. IT IS the country.

>entire movement is about butthole rights and transnational capitalism
get fucked liberal

There are no relevant actual lefist parties

Ireland's political landscape has been dominated by two right wing parties since its creation. We like to think we're a left wing nation because of reasons but we're not. Our right wing is a lot more sly and invisible in comparison to the British or American right wing. They operate on the veneer of centrism.

The left is confined to a few small meme parties. Sinn Fein are admirable in their efforts to get a United Ireland but they're barely left, calling them socdems would be crediting them too much even.

you're a faggot nation, you fart sniffing leprechaun.

We have two kinds of leftism:

Socdem which is basically the left you know from western Europe, but without such focuse on coloured people, fags or human rights.

Then there are the the communists (which are sadly our 3rd most powerfull party) and pro-Russian wing of SocDem, which includes the president. These guys are pretty much "alt-right", in issues Sup Forums cares about.

They're all mentally ill trannies. I guarantee any US flag talking positively about communism or socialism is a white mtf tranny.

>Then there are the the communists (which are sadly our 3rd most powerfull party)
Thank you, nostalgic grandmas.

MY EYES!

One sometimes wonders, if these people realized they can vote other parties now...

...

>entire movement is about butthole rights and transnational capitalism

Wow you literally just described Ted Cruz's ideology. Good job senpai

>socialism is about capitalism

how fucking stupid?

Communism in the CIS region = adepts of the Soviet communism (leninism) primarily.

Has nothing to do with your communists, I bet.

Primarily populist, pro-USSR and nostalgic. Has nothing to do with liberal leftism, which is the standartized "left" for the West.

Western style SJWs do exist in Moscow and St. Pete; they're usually hipsters and gays who get beaten up by drunk bydlo in the street and run to the Swedish embassy to beg for asylum. We've all seen the videos linked here before.

...

They are rare and have nothing to do with the communist party.

The communist party is too anti-gay and intolerant. Hell, some people out there even like Stalin openly. Social democrats, which are your "communists" are not the ex-USSR authoritarian socialism-leninism communists.

Most "Russian SJWs" are just libshits, who accumulate 40-100 people and get their ass handed to them, once they become too noisy or troublesome.

Who was pushing TPP faggot liberal?

>socialists were the people pushing the TPP

fucking dumbass

>we're socialists, for real... just voting for neoliberals for butthole rights cause dats more important

lulz

good luck getting any normal white dudes to join.

...

>wanting normies in our commie party

I think we're fine on the fringe of society

yep, truly butthole rightists are the vanguard of the revolution

Not he socialists. Obama, Clinton, and the DNC are porky scum.

Irrelevant. There were many communist parties in the past but then the main party PRI had an ideological split (more like power but w/e) and those who left created the PRD which absorbed all these tiny leftists.

PRD was THE LEFT during the 90's and early 2000's, but they too suffered an split recently. Now we have:

>PRD (Democratic Revolution's Party)
Moderate lefties. Recently trying to appeal more and more to the middle class. One of my uncles was an active member. This was the party were all Humanities students used to flock to in the past. Now they've moved to MORENA.

>PT (Worker's Party)
Formerly a Maoist party (yeah lol, I know). It has existed since the 90's and is mostly seen forming coalitions with the PRD. They usually never go to an election on their own because they always lose. My father was an active member when I was a child, in order to keep his employees happy and avoid surprise "strikes".

>Movimiento ciudadano (Citizen's movement)
I don't know. I've seen them since 20 years ago but they always change leadership and name. Nominally they're "Social democrats". But they never win anything so who cares. Always runs in coalition with PRD.

>MORENA (National Regeneration Movement)
Left-wing nationalism. Basically Mexican Chavism. Party of the GIBS ME DAT. Splinter group from the PRD. Popular with "students" and the poor because populism. Created out of butthurt by the dude that lost two presidential elections in a row just 1% shy. Later his own party said they wouldn't choose him to run again so he created his own party.

Commies are a threat to society and will be summarily executed during the day of the rake

We don't have one.

We have a Right Wing Party in Republicans, and our "Left Wing" party is Republican but slightly less racist in the form of Democrats.

The Republicans are trying to push hard to the right, and the Democrats are trying to figure out how they can do the same without pissing off their voter base. It's pathetic.

>But what about the CPUSA

It's comprised almost entirely of FBI agents who run the party to tag and track leftist activity in the US; they don't even hide it anymore.

They're almost irrelevant except for this one social democrat party

Neoliberals.

This is a leftist thread. Why are we discussing liberals? They are nothing more than Dangerous Compromisers who go full "HELICOPTER MEMES" the moment they become slightly inconvenienced.

NDP are our 'socialist' party. Liberals are more centre-left in practise.

I joined a group that kicks off side mirrors of cars with an invalid / outdated eco-plaquette
