Yeah, I really just try to disengage with campists these days. Honestly authoritarian leftists are soooo few where I am from, they aren’t even worth really giving consideration to the problems I am facing. They are only a thing in online spaces like Lemmy. They are all “LOL, brainwashed imperialist. You cited an academic paper? It’s not from Zhengzhou? Ha, it’s just imperialist lies. I don’t have to engage with the data on any real, academic level, because LOL not from China!” The best is when someone asks them WTF they are supposed to do when they shit on all efforts for change, and they imply you are complicit because you have yet to instigate revolutionary violence, when they have never been in a fight, let alone fucking killed someone.
The small, actual, leftist movement here tends to run anti-authority, I am far more concerned with them. It is fun to talk shit though.
