    Ultras fear the scroll.

    Well, they should. That’s in a 2-pt font. You’ll blow your eyes out trying to read it.

    They don’t understand that, in order to get to the end-goal, you need to leverage the good parts of capitalism—while keeping the capitalists on a short leash—in order to quickly develop the productive forces, especially when the imperialist states are trying to crush you.

    .world and it’s shitlib affiliates have pretty neatly expunged anyone who could possibly be called “Ultra” from it’s platform years back.

    So, while I agree with the sentiment, idk if that’s what we’re seeing today. More that people in a Western capitalist institution are getting crushed in the machine. And they justifiably don’t like that. So they say “turn the machine off”, without really considering what the machinary of capitalism is doing or why they might still need it or how you can operate heavy machinery without people getting chewed up in the gears.
