    Is it a thing on lemmygrad to pretend to read Lenin and then say the total opposite of what was meant? Is it common practise to selectively quote things out of context and then try to contort ML into blanquism?

    You’re a dishonest actor, there is no need to be nice to you

      We’re both clear that Lenin says to work with people.

      I’m trying to communicate that “left unity” implies a unity of movement beyond temporary alliance.

      If we’re agreed that lenin is recommending temporary alliances, then it feels like we should be agreed that “left unity” (a permanent unity of purpose) isn’t really a thing.

      Is there anything I’ve missed in this summation?

          And you’re just being mean because you don’t want to concede the point.

          Can we agree that “left unity” (as a permanent unity of purpose) isn’t a real thing?

          Or are you just going to duck the question and yell at me again?

            No, I’m being mean because you’re being intellectually dishonest and wasting everybody’s time to make a pedantic, useless, and somehow still wrong, point.

            Unless you want to talk about anything other than your pointless need to redefine “Left unity” into a thing it isn’t (and then failing to argue against that), we’re done. You pointless person.
