    I agree, MLs who ignore the actual genocide in Ukraine aren’t leftists, they are campists.

      I would think they are more Stalinist than campist. But I don’t know much about the campists. I agree that they aren’t leftist though. Isn’t the aim of politics to reduce deaths, not increase them.

          Finally a real person. I’ll read it and get back to ya.

          Edit: Very good. I did not know the DSA had a forum. Thanks. I’m still a little confused.

          The Trots were the original campists. But Internationalists consider current iterations of China and the former USSR as campists.

          Did I get that right? I read it quickly, so I may have missed some points. I have Internationalist leanings, so any resources you can give me would be helpful.
