    no this makes perfect sense. see MLs have to agree and have hegemony of thought. Otherwise their whole plans fall apart. They can’t disagree with each other. So they literally can’t conceptualize dissent and internal critique as being positive. They are ideologues whose whole plan doesn’t work if thye all don’t have the same belifs. This would look like a war to them bc their ideal is everyone following the party line 100% of the time. And its a sign of failure if that doesn’t happen.

    Have they never seen us have a struggle session? Lmao

      And don’t forget the part where they mount vicious struggle sessions to sacrifice anyone who is violating the hegemony in any way in order to terrify the remaining cultists into never straying from the program.

        Questioning and changing your beliefs when new information is presented is so foreign to them, that the only explanation is to project your own cultish behavior to everyone else

        Who’s ideology was it that was named after conserving the hegemony?

      This is someone trying to describe democratic centralism ten years after half-paying attention to someone briefly explaining it
