Ich kann Campism überhaupt nicht ausstehen.

(Ich glaub echt, dass das hier der Hauptgrund ist, weil gerade Vergleiche mit den USA gezogen werden, weil die USA ist nicht so gut in Züge bauen)

It is really infuriating how much tankies love dictators because their ideology is just campism. The US is capitalist so everything they do MUCH better evil

the issue is a lot of these people arguing for this are so in on campism that they believe because a socialist is doing it, it will totally be not corrupt. And the reason why social programs are bad are because they were made by Republicans or the lame Democrats

they literally go on to argue the Bismarck had SURRENDERED and we just mag-dumped on helpless Nazi sailors with their hands up, so I think we've got either an actual Nazi denialist or someone so far down the "America bad" knee-jerk campism that they swallowed Nazi propaganda unknowingly

Dumb, contrarian 21st century second campism. Anyone anti-west is automatically a based liberator, regardless of the actual governing structures or dominant political ideologies of those places

And I would *also* say that compensatory campism happens. And, I think it's possible to actually evaluate the strength of arguments - and that fortunately that occurs as well. But anyway, just thought I would add a slightly diff't perspective, for whatever it's worth.

This is just lying because you're doing bad faith instand of engaging with my views and Lenin wrote on campism but you don't care about that either. this is just same shit liberals do all the time. I never supported any of that. strawmen isn't an arugment!

Ultras is when upholding anti-imperialism not campism/mutiporalism. Ultras is when not being okey with abues/rape. btw I am friends with abuse victim that left CPUSA after getting abused there. either fix your org or shut the fuck up!

Labeling people “Dengist” or “nazbol” isn’t analysis. The question is structural power. The US and its allies waged a regime-change proxy war in Syria. That’s a matter of record, not campism. Your views are very unserious.

I don't support campism. I hope you don't, either, because that's not true Communism.

One of the sad things is, in the absence of a coherent internationalist left, I find some groupings end up drifting towards campism purely out of the desire to have some sense of an actually existing internationalism--even if it is more often than not painting reactionary politics as leftist

The Owen Jones vatnik mini arc is why I feel the left gets thrashed for having terrible foreign policy ideas which are always US/UK/Europe bad campism and "If we just abolished the army we'd have world peace I swear."

I feel this was Corbyns biggest failure and the fact the man can't lead a party.

Eh. His political writing beyond criticisms of the US tended to fall into campism. I don't want to do the "I knew he was bad all along" shit, but I'm not giving him undue flowers.

No idea. But the national DSA often engages in Campism so foreign policy can’t be the main reason people associate with one label or the other

Every so often the leftlib commentariat acts like “America bad” is a foul or silly thing to believe. Occasionally they get “sophisticated” with it and talk about campism and whatnot. Either way, every time its still a defense of the status quo and doesn’t reckon with what we do to the global south

All actually existing IR takes realism as its basic presumption and thus retreats to a vulgar campism when faced with any challenge

But I don't wholeheartedly support a complete isolation of Iran. YOU just admitted to wholeheartedly supporting Iran and it's Axis. At least have the spine to own your campism

Campism goes two ways, by definition

So glad to see our text republished - and on a page concerned with the renewal of the left, to help it grow away from oppressive and authoritarian politics. The left truly needs a reboot. Especially now, when its campism undermines a more collective countering of imperial and far right synergies

have any of the Very Serious NDP candidates said anything about Venezuela or is that 'campism'?
