Was looking for my industrialist song and turned up with this unfinished one instead. Well, here goes:

I’ve got a small problem, most leftists ain’t pure

The prospect of revisionism is too much a lure

China is revisionist, prolewiki has rats

It’s time to go thermonuclear, destroy those impure brats

/

I’ve got almighty Hoxha, the man’s on my side

They only have revisionist Deng to save their revisionist hides

I want to destroy them all, turn them into bloody smears

That’s my entire life’s work, gotta go thermonuclear

/

Construct some more bunkers to stop the revision army

ignore material conditions, now they can’t harm me

Cower in my bunker all day and night

Let the revisionists come and then we’ll fight

/

I’m no revisionist, I’m as left as they come

I’m not like those lemmygrad rats who support revisionist Deng

Listen to me for a while and then you’ll understand

Why it’s certain that they will be crushed by Hoxha’s mighty hand

/

It was all the revisionist prolewiki’s fault

they banned me so I made an alt

but then they banned those alternates, too

exposed my life story like an exhibit at the zoo

And then they told fabricated lies designed to smear the name of I and the great anti-revisionist Enver Hoxha, so that they might force me to go…

THERMONULCEAR!!!

    My friend, I do share some of your aversion from revisionism, though I think that you are going way too hard on the approach, and this song is burning some bridges that sound to me like you are throwing out the baby with the bathwater, like by what you are saying prolewiki has a lot of revisionists, but I’m quite sure that there are good folks there too, and you might have been banned not because you disagree with them but by how you disagreed with them, you being right about something(and we need to be vigilant because we are often not right about everything we think we are), do not give you the right to be unpleasant with others, like calling them rats to their faces(I understand in other spaces venting the frustration). And furthermore I think that one of our many battlefields is of trying to convince revisionists of the contrary(at least those that think that way because they don’t know any better) and even when they are revisionists, there is a lot of common ground that we can stand on and ally with them in many opportunities. And hear me out I’m not saying that we do not need to be weary about getting too comfortable with surrounding ourselves with revisionists, but they often do share a lot of our values, and that should not be ignored. So I honestly do understand the frustration, and it is a very unfortunate truth that the imperialist tall tales survive for so long, and we will change that, if prolewiki is not good enough we will build our own corner, in fact comrade Dessalines essays is quite a good start, and we will promote our side, and show that the facts support our understanding. We will triumph because we are right.

      This is ironic. It’s referencing a famous community member, wisconscom, who believed all the stuff in this song but unironically.

        Huh, didn’t know that, I have the tendency to take things seriously, both for having a hard time parsing some ironies as well as I rather look like a fool than hurting someone

    I’m sorry but Deng Xiaoping provided a very positive role in China, much like with any leader, I don’t agree with everything he did, there is nuance to everyone, but to dismiss Deng’s contributions to Socialism with Chinese Characteristics is dishonest imo, China’s economic development grew enormously under Deng and his policies are still taken into consideration when developing policies to this day in the PRC. I can respect elements of Hoxha’s views and policies but anti-Deng stuff is a bit much. Also Prolewiki is better than 99.9% of the rest of the internet, I’d take it easy with dissing people who are genuinely interested in communism and anti-imperialism, these peoples’ hearts are in the right place, it’s important to think about that every now and then
