Yeah but, how many of those get U.S training, weapons, and air support?

shining path were/are a cultish maoist group that frequently attacked other leftist activists and was brutal to thepeasants they were supposedly fighting for. the us sponsored war on terror was a massacre, but no need to romanticise shining path. tankies assume every third world guerrila has to be 100% authentic and good, when in reality many of them end up turning into gangs, there are quite a few milquetoast socdem politicians who used to be guerrilleros as well.

...

Slightly modified the melody from "A Las Barricadas.". Wish my Spanish was good enough to know what they're saying.

this. FARC doesn't get shiny US-made documentaries either. No wonder it has no discussion here.

They're basically thugs kicking over trash cans, they need to be educated on the superiority of Social Democracy.

FUCKING
SECTARIAN

the seas rumble, the storm rages
save power, everything is illusion.
To storm the heavens by the barrel of a gun

Why not all of the Americas?

it's just maoist plagiarism, they changed the lyrics.

I didn't even know Paraguay had guerrillas.

Anyway, FARC has long ago been embedded in the drug war mess, and they signed a peace deal anyway. Shining Path are crazy motherfuckers. Really cool to read about, not so much to be nearby.

They've been narcos for close to a decade now. They haven't been Maoists for awhile now.

why?

Story of my life, just change guerrillero for being active on a syndicate.


The melody of a las barricadas is originally a polish song called varshavianka youtu.be/8-C-tjQK0TY

You want to join Narcotics traffickers ?

n-no…

somebody post that FARC webm with dido plz

Because that's what the FARC are, nothing more.

Actually, funding communist revolution by selling deadly drugs to rich assholes is good.

what about EPP

...

Didn't FARC make peace with the regime and agree to disband?

Yes that's right, Shining Path are bloodthirsty cannibals and the FARC are all drug dealers. Now back to work prole.

This

FARC were narco‐capitalists, and they’re pretty much done now

I created this thread to discuss this
But nobody is pooving nothing

Do any of them accept volunteers?

all of them, but sadly they all are going to dissapear soon :c

Don't underestimate the power of waifus, OP.

Is there ever a moment when YPGenocidaire aren't getting cucked?

It doesn't seem to be translated into English, but La Cuarta Espada is a really nice read.


That's not exactly true, read below.


I'm sorry man, it just is. Try looking for a Colombian comr8, he'll confirm this. I'm not saying they're necessarily getting rich off of it, but they do depend on it to finance the struggle.

Now let's reason a bit. How does a guerrilla movement finance its activities? If it operates in urban centers, it can rob banks. But Colombian guerrillas were peasants. There aren't poper cities around to be taken and taxed, all there is is utterly miserable villages. They can barely farm enough for subsistence, so they're in no state to fund the fighting. The best thing, or even only thing, that will get you any money in those parts is, you guessed it, coca, because of international demand for coke.

A common arrangement in all those Northern Andean jungle areas that can sustain coca plants is the following. By default, the local governments and police are reactionary, and are either cowed by, bought out by, or just plain are the narcos. By this I mean the actual, hardened criminal gangs and cartels. So peasants plant coca (again, because it's the only economic activity worth a damn), narcos process and smuggle it out, local authorities look the other way (or join in), and central authorities don't know, don't care or are also in on it.

One day gommie guerrillas show up, and they tend to be much better fighters than narcos or podunk cops. Corrupt authorities get served a lead salad. Or all authorities, it's not like there's a rule. Narcos are told to keep working and give them a cut, or face the consequences. The guerrillas don't give a shit about the morality of it because as far as they're concerned, it's 99% the problem of gringo imperialists. They made this mess, now they deal with it. Other guerrillas in the region also do (did?) the same thing to varying degrees, including the Sendero.

An organization that spends more time dealing drugs than any meaningful political struggle, even trying to give up their arms for amnesty in the recent peace talks.
An organization that destroyed any hope for the left in the areas it operated by torturing and massacring workers for literally no reason other than show of force. A fucking embarrassment, and an embarrassment that hasn't even been Maoist for years now.
My favorite leftcom organization.

There really isn't much to discuss here, two have devolved far beyond their original goals and are slowly but surely disappearing, and one doesn't even DO anything.

pumb

good thread

After Abimael Guzman was arrested the party leadership fell apart, there was tons of infighting, and now that most of the party leadership are completely different people, they've slid deeper and deeper into illigalism to fund their actions, and have essentially become narcos. This is why you see MLMs talk about India and Napal all the time, but no one hardly mentions Peru anymore.

That's because those groups show, as a matter of fact, how delusional communism is, and how they didn't achieve nothing in decades. So it's best to believe they just don't exist, and that when Syria gets some peace, commies there will be some magical socialist utopia, if the group remains there, being degenerates crippling the development(like the ones you mentioned), leftists will just pretend they are not true socialists, if not, you'll say true socialism was just about to be made, only to be ruined by selfish and greedy people, or a neocon ninja ghosts conspiracy.

Thinking ahead, maybe it's best for the Kurds to get stomped hard, that way you can claim they were about to achieve a ture socialist society, without money and markets, where everyone loves each other, even though they actually weren't not even close to doing that.

When do the FARC cross the border and fight for Chavismo tbh.

lmao they won't even fight in their own country now
Anyway, guerrilla is dumb. All that strength and energy should be put into organizing the working class, not into masturbatory romantic suicide.

what the fuck did you just fucking say about my favourite guerrilla movement, you little bitch? have you know that i graduated top of my class of the YPG

EPP had made a huge progress in the last years and they aren't even a decade old

yes, you have the reason user….
