In a thread concerning the EU elections I asked a similar thing https://lemmygrad.ml/post/4768070/4417708
Ah yes, i know the KPÖ. They are “eurocommunists”. They associate with the “Party of the European Left” at the EU level. This puts them firmly in the camp of pro-EU social democrats. They are fully on board the anti-Russia bandwagon on the Ukraine issue.
They have made a conscious choice to fall in line. That is the price many of these kinds of parties believe they have to pay in order to be allowed a seat at the table. They do what they think they have to do in order to be allowed to acquire political power in the bourgeois system.
The communist party here got pressured since the death of Stalin to distance from him or the comminust politics of the USSR. Nowadays most Austrians think communism is something evil, as in every aspect of it, but mostly Stalinism. Over time and with pressure from mainstream opinion they alligned with the burguois parties in most aspects. The KPÖ are now more right leaning than the social democrats of austria 50 years ago, while those (SPÖ) decided to get even more conservative and corrupt.
It actually looks like a textbook example of moving the overton window.
The abundance of uranium and thorium is of the same magnitude. The thing is economics. Uranium is cheap, and as long it is, we use the sources we have. As the peice of uranium rises other sources get economical including sea water extraction which is effectively renewable.
Thank you! They have not been on the ballot, but I’ll check it out.
For now i did vote, but after some studying I’m not so sure anymore if I want to support this system.
I thought: Support the KPÖ, they’re the most left we have on the ballot. The chance that people actually see what the left (although liberal) is about. And maybe they can easier be convinced to read more on socialism/communism.
But after reading that seems reformative and even damaging the revolutionary part of ML.
Im from Austria. The popular opinion here on many things is just plain stupid.
Telling others that china is not as bad as media wants us to believe, or being anti-zionist, or claiming NATO has fucked up so much in Europe will be met with weird reactions, ignorance, aggression or questioning your sanity…
So our communist party is careful in the way they speak…
Not OP, but an important point in some countries:
We got a communist party, but the only party openly pro-russia ist the far right ones. The ones that wish for fascism like in the ‘old days’. I know, centrists are not much better, bur voting fot the exact opposite of the communists seems not right.
Thank you, I did not check the link after posting.
