Some Notes Before Reading

This is a collection of sources or observations I made during my interaction with Maoists. This will be split in two parts.

The first will be Observation, where I look at Maoists and see how they act. This may be the weakest one, as not all maoists do not represent the observations I made. It may also be biased considering most of my interactions are from twitter mostly. I will be considering the so-called 'internet maoists' or MLMpM maoists. I'm not considering the 'maoists' who support modern socialist nations (I don't think they are maoists anyways). The distinction between other maoists can be blurry, and that will be introduced in the future in my upcoming essay.

The second will be Sources, of which some sources may have a C in them. For the sources that do not contain an C, They are trustworthy sources, as in sources which are valid and can be used without backlash, typically socialist and marxist-leninist sources, or sources of indisputable fact. C means Caution, and that they are sources which will need more time of consideration, especially if it comes from a bourgeois or revisionist source. All bourgeois state media sources (regardless of origin) will have a C put next to the link. Rarely, if ever, will an X appear. An X means that this source has been analysed and has been discarded. The link next to it also will appear with a strikethrough line, and brackets stating it's reason.

All of this is in preparation of my second edition to the Problems with Maoism essay, which if you want to read, click the name of the essay.


Observation

Maoists appealing to the 'all or nothing' fallacy

Maoists typically despise electoralism, which is valid. However, the maoists also despise communists participating in elections despite it being reasonably valid and the bolsheviks did run an election in 1917. List of occurrences:


Apples to Oranges Comparison

Many maoists compare the atrocities of the Shining Path to either the Tombov rebellion or some atrocities by the North Vietnamese. List of occurrences:


Misuse of the term Fascism

This is also noted in the CPI (Marxist) heading. List of occurrences:

Cultish behaviour of the Maoists

We can cite multiple examples for this, and the funniest one I found the first one because it screams 'graphic design is my passion'. List of occurrences:

Sources on the Shining Path

Gang of Four and Origins of Maoism
