It's not even a factor of me not liking the theory of Marxism-Leninism, its more down to the pompous attitudes a lot of MLs have. I don't agree with what happened in Ukraine and i wouldn't call that Communism despite me being a platformist anarchist, i don't think the way that makhno went about it was the right way nor was it the right circumstance to carry out that kind of revolution especially when you have the USSR keeping an eye on you. I used to be a Marxist-Leninist, i know that Cuba is different but what i am getting at is China, Cuba, etc all have monetary exchange of some kind, I don't think communism has ever really been tried, and sure thats a pretty leftcom thing to say but i genuinely see that, not even by anarchist standards has it been tried and attempted. I associate Socialism as being joint at the hip with Social Democrats, When Socialists back Social Democrats it destroys any hope of them being taken seriously. Also i wouldn't say there is 100% no support for a violent uprising, that completely depends on where you are, and i'm pretty sure if you put the effort in, it wouldn't take long for people to back it, since from what ive found when ive spoken to people is that they're against violence until they understand the goal and logic behind the means, i don't see MLs doing much to correct the brainwashing by the liberal states who wish to keep the status quo.
