    about political rights

    Which stops the moment you use force, riots, and violence to sabotage liberal governments like MLK and communists like Mandela did. And liberals did not like those people at the time.

    Communists had to pry these concessions from liberalism with organized violence, don’t pretend like liberalism did these things. The lgbt liberation movement waved the flag of the legitimate vietnamese government during the US invasion. Marsha Johnson, Leslie Fienberg, communists.

    “The white liberal differs from the white conservative only in one way: the liberal is more deceitful than the conservative.”

    - Malcolm X

    "who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.”

    - MLK, 1963

    Liberals’ reaction to the genocide in Palestine and lack of support for Hamas, PFLP, etc has made it clear to me and most other communists how true this is.
