Me personally, I find the EZLN fascinating. (if there is anything bad about them, let me know because I do not know much bad things about them)
They are one of the few movements that anarchists praise that I actually think are based, although the Zapatistas have told westerners to stop calling them anarchists, communists, or anything else.
They also fight against drug cartels and seem to have created one of the most stable territories in the Chiapas region.
However, they are too small to do anything big like overthrowing the Mexican government. They would be crushed quickly.
Give me your thoughts on the EZLN and/or, as the title suggests, any non-ML movements that you support.
even more than the PSUV? Also, what’s the beef between the PSUV and the PCV about?
Something Something, Socdem PSUV gives an inch to the U.S, and the PCV is mad at that… https://www.blackagendareport.com/fight-between-psuv-and-pcv-unnecessary-untimely-and-alien
The PSUV does unfortunately take influence from Trotsky, but its explained they take more influence from Venezuelan culture and history, and they limit their use of violence if they deem it unecessary.
I’ve also spent an hour reading PCV’s accusations and their history, and I’m extremely skeptical of them. They seem to be annoying contrarian naive tools for U.S. imperialism.
PSUV is not a force for socialism, and as such they seek to destroy those who actually fight for it. In fact the PSUV is actively trying to dismantle the PCV https://pcb.org.br/portal2/30320
I’m extremely skeptical of the PCV’s accusations. After doing like an hour’s worth of reading, they seem to likely be a lapdog and trojan horse for CIA regime change, while they accuse the PSUV of being traitors despite the PSUV having little options.
