This is the general history subcom. Anything relating to history is welcome here. Doesn't have to be Marxist, though it certainly can be. So join in on the discussion and let's learn more.

If someone is always late to something how useful are they? Leftist politics (virtually nonexistent), especially in the west, has to bypass the fact that liberals will never have the correct opinion in time, almost as if they benefit from their ignorance (a lot of times feigned ignorance).

Completely agree, in general I think that the demographic communists should focus on are the people who are just falling out of liberal mainstream and who haven't formed strong political opinions of their own.

Yep. The self proclaimed liberals are usually too far gone. The juxtaposition of people's stances on Iran's treatment of women and minorities vs jolanis treatment of women and minorities tells you all you need to know about people that declare their liberalism. The people to be convinced are the ones that were just liberals because of the poltiical currents.

Exactly, liberals have made it crystal clear that they have absolutely no principles.
