I was wondering what you all thought of tackling workerism within Communist parties across the West
hello
calimero what is workerism
what do you mean tackling it more exactly
by workerism, I not only mean adherence to "traditional white working class values" as a concept, but also the tendency to pander to other communities whose cultures have similar reactionary trends
what are white working class values?
reactionary ideas spead through bourgeois media in working class environments.
like what?
xenophobia, willingness to go back to previous stage of capital ("it was better when we had the factories"), etc.
homophobia in some parts, but that is not exclusive to the "native" populations
thats my point
and do you think that is common in communist parties? I think you would be hard-pressed to find that commonly among communist parties
The Dutch SP is a good example of this,
What xenophobic thing did they say
here he says "In the Netherlands we speak Dutch" after a Turkish SP member just thanked his family members in turkish
please send me the direct link to the picture
its there
i mean on facebook
i dont see why his name is like that when his rael name is jan
is he refering to the turkins people commenting or to the turkish PM?
Dutch-Turks "Turks Nederlanders"
but his party is full of this kind of stuff
depending on the location
But mainly in depressed industrial zones zhere workerism is a phenomenon
So how do we fight it
hmm i just found anaother source
and he actually said that which seems stupid
anyways, he said this, and it seesm to me to not be justified for him to say that
and it says here he was heavily critized for it\
i think that is how you fight it right?
if someone says stupid shit like that
The problem is these mentalities are present within European radical left parties
i dont feel like it is though\
like Die Linke
i dont see a widespread occurence of that
why wit hthe die linke
like campaign posters which show that would show it better for me
one individual member is not really showing a widespread issue right>?
Well he was their ex-leader
