I’m in a bit of a doomer mood tbh. Left wing movements are at least gaining some traction where I am but they are far from principled MLs. As much as I like my own party, which even started as a ML movement, I believe we are really far away from returning to our roots. And as much as I appreciate my comrades doing their work, the liberal brain rot can still be strong. I especially feel like walking on egg shells when it comes to showing support for countries like China, DPRK, etc.

And I don’t even want to begin on the naive attitude towards the rise of the far right and possible violence lol.

    There are a few respectable ML parties in Europe, though they are usually pretty small. Many of them are anti-EU, which isn’t a bad thing, but idk if that’s what your looking for.

    I’ve heard the Belgian communists are pretty strong. Otherwise most of the “communist” organisations tend to be either Trotskyites or Maoists.

    Usually you can always find a nice ML organization, it’s only a matter of how small you’re willing to go. Don’t restrain yourself to parties too. Sometimes unions or other political organizations are better. Not being registered as a party can allow for a better ability to express their stances legally, or show their commitment to not participate in bourgeois elections.

          Elections are coming up this Sunday and there is a possibility of becoming the third or fourth biggest party in the country actually. This is after being irrelevant up until 2019. So I’d say it’s going pretty well all things considered. But with any growing movement we need to stay awake and not slip into socdem territory for example.
