It is impossible to speak seriously about Marxism in the West without incorporating the role of Christianity in each social formation. “Western Marxism has taken a historic distance from the concrete experiences of socialist transition in the Soviet Union, China, Viet Nam, and Cuba.”
I would recommend reading this and sending this to any radlibs/DSA/anarchists you know
Ah yeah I figured that might be the one, I remember the Irish Che thing from when I visited Dublin.
Generally here (Greece) people are slightly less scared of the USSR as well as other places, because we had some succdem leaders who at least maintained somewhat good relations with these countries from the 80s onwards, even with Gaddafi and Iran etc. It's only Turkey that everyone here is perpetually pissed about.
For some reason many Greeks like the Irish a lot. Also lots of Irish artists are very popular in Greece, like Rory Gallagher and Dropkick Murphys (yeah I know basically everyone likes them but I'd definitely say their success here was larger than elsewhere, I also remember watching a DM livestream and like half the people there were Greek lol). Idk why but there is some sort of weird affinity that doesn't make that much sense, given how separated the countries are. But yeah, I liked Dublin, I could live there. I couldn't live in the UK.
