Middle class people here are unfortunately pretty politically ignorant and tend to support whatever the overwhelmingly right wing news says so they tend to support it. The people I organize with are very opposed to it.

I live here, there's no doubt he wants US bases.

There's plenty of destruction going on by the machine of capital. It's not likely to be stopped whole cloth by a revolutionary organization without the power of a state.

Definitely disagree. There won't be some final end of technological development and even if there were, the mass displacement of labor would take time and during that time class consciousness would skyrocket as it is doing now.

Funding a fruitless war and a genocide is expensive, and who needs a habitable planet anyway. Very sustainable system you have here, Mr. Biden.

Yeah, as the other poster said, the propaganda here is unreal. I have plenty of criticisms of Correa, but the right wing here is so ideological and one sided.

Agreed. Very interesting albeit unfortunate.

Living in Ecuador is wild. A huge number of people are supporting this move because they hate Correa and Glas is an ally of his.

The main purpose of voting has historically been estimating popular support for a communist party, not identifying the best leader of the revolution.

If you think the point is to pressure change, most of the time, yeah, it's useless.

It's a great opportunity to catch people moving up the radicalization ladder to pull them left.

In more extreme moments with sufficient organization behind them, protests can develop into revolutions such as the fascist counter-revolution in Ukraine in 2014. That obviously didn't change much about the underlying system in Ukraine other than installing a western puppet and further empowering the fascists.

Have you ever researched the DPRK independently? Do you have anything positive you can say about them?
