What is it like to just accept regurgitated right-wing lies and not thinking for yourself? So much wrong with what you’ve laid out. The first being that you’re conflating liberals with communists.
Che Guevara made one suggestive racial comment, and it was a common attitude for someone of his background to have, but he later sympathized with blacks and changed his views. He was not a notorious racist. Marx was privately racist, but that doesn’t mean we should write off all of his work, nor does it make Marxists racists.

He threatened to unleash “vicious dogs” on BLM protesters, and said, “when the looting starts, the shooting starts”. Many prominent members of your party, including Wendy Rodgers and Marjorie Taylor Greene went to a white nationalist convention to speak to their audience. The party is adopting replacement theory logic, saying as part of a plan, whitee
