Seems controversial around these parts. But I cannot for the life of me support a lot of the authoritarian governments that claim to be leftist, especially the DPRK. I’ve read all the literature (finally) and I can’t believe any leftist would support them. I understand the importance of an authoritarian government during times of revolution, but the countries that employ it almost always feel anti-leftist and contradictory to leftist theory. I’m only recently this far left and I may just need more exposure. But even by their own metrics I don’t believe them to be leftist and they only use those labels to further indoctrinate people. Cuba is the only country I will support and even then, they’ve made inherently pro-capitalist and pro-imperialist decisions that make me feel that they too are moving into the position of being an authoritarian capitalist country with a mask of leftist bastardization.
