Agree with the sentiment, but I do have to echo Sankara here, that we must never stop explaining. We can't give up on all libs - our movement can't succeed without the support of the people.
But yea, honestly, the only place I feel like I can genuinely criticize revolutionaries is here - I am genuinely willing to defend Khrushchev in front of libs, and I really don't like ceding even a little bit of ground whenever possible.
The only exception is in the case of actually reactionary regimes that I happen to critically support. I am not going to pretend that women's rights and especially LGBTQ+ rights are respected in Iran to the degree that they should be - that doesn't mean that I don't critically support them, but it does mean that my discourse around them is critical because i don't want to seem like a patsoc/strasserist
