why do so many american organizations have rape and general misogyny problems?

like first frso then the psl and like why does this keep happening? like its either a trotskyite, pseudo trotskyite, nazbol, patsoc, or a maoist group(all have rape problems), a hoxhaist group(very hesitant on these groups asa i dont her much from them and theyre hoxhaists and jerk off to portraits of stalin. granted i do too but they do it in a revisionist way), cpusa(barely relevant lmao) and acp(self explanatory), or the dsa(socdems mostly) or green party(tf do they even do). atp im prolly jus gonna keep studying and when my life allows me to join a local queerlib/feminist/blacklib/general charity org in my area because holy shit party leaders need not more marxist theory but a book on consent.

Do you see reality as fundamentally good or evil from a human moral perspective?

My argument is that the universe is not good, and in fact cannot be amoral, as it spacetime itself exists due to inherent chaos, decay, and suffering. Without those things, spacetime would cease to exist, as theorized in the end of the universe.

Engels on "bourgeois socialists"

From The Principles of Communism

The second category consists of adherents of present-day society who have been frightened for its future by the evils to which it necessarily gives rise. What they want, therefore, is to maintain this society while getting rid of the evils which are an inherent part of it.

To this end, some propose mere welfare measures – while others come forward with grandiose systems of reform which, under the pretense of re-organizing society, are in fact intended to preserve the foundations, and hence the life, of existing society.

Communists must unremittingly struggle against these bourgeois socialists because they work for the enemies of communists and protect the society which communists aim to overthrow.

Stalin this, Trotsky that. What if ZINOVIEV led the Soviet Union?

Of all the original Bolsheviks, I hardly see anyone ever talk about how a Zinoviev-led Soviet Union would fare, despite how at times he eclipsed Trotsky as the main opposition voice to Stalin post-Troika, and probably the person with the most hand in Stalin's consolidation of power. Which is weird, because frankly, Zinoviev's path to power is easier to imagine and more realistic than the likes of Trotsky or Bukharin.
