I remember a comic (I think it was Great Moments in Leftism) that described Marxism-Leninism as social democracy from the barrel of a gun and like. Now that social democracy has been largely completely eliminated, I'm kinda thinking, yes, actually, I would like some social democracy, and I would like a gun to make sure I get it

#like I remember a disabled friend of mine saying 'I could go for social democracy right now. I'd like the benefits system to not be hellish!#it's not a tendency you see so much now given how bad things have gotten #but the 'reforms are bad because they aren't communist' is not really something i have a huge amount of time for #reformISM is a rubbish because you're only going to get improvements with militancy and revolutionary methods #but yes. i would like things to improve somewhat
