I’m in a bit of a doomer mood tbh. Left wing movements are at least gaining some traction where I am but they are far from principled MLs. As much as I like my own party, which even started as a ML movement, I believe we are really far away from returning to our roots. And as much as I appreciate my comrades doing their work, the liberal brain rot can still be strong. I especially feel like walking on egg shells when it comes to showing support for countries like China, DPRK, etc.
And I don’t even want to begin on the naive attitude towards the rise of the far right and possible violence lol.
I can’t speak for European comrades but over here in Canada I would say we have a fairly principled ML party and still fail to gain much of any traction. Just having a party isn’t enough I would say. I don’t know what the solution is and don’t have much constructive to add but I definitely understand the feeling that the future is bleak. All I can say is if you can make a difference at a small level in your community as our party does here then thats better than nothing
