Western Maoists have never earned the hearts of the people and supplanted their dictatorship of capital and oppression, yet they claim to be the true heirs of "pure socialism".
Internet people throwing around quotes from Lenin, Stalin and Mao but hating current China and all other AES. At least they used to be like that because lately they are forgetting even the quotes. Example from OP is a gonzaloist which is extreme sectarian case.
Honestly, I think most of them are gonzaloists, they just know that if they openly admit they admire him, people will dismiss what they have to say, so they claim to be one of the "non-gonzalist Maoists" which just seems to be maoists with a tiny bit of shame left, but still lacking the self awareness of every other maoist.
China is successful and thus it can’t be socialist.
MF can’t see that China is successful because it IS socialist.
Western maoism is just a cult of failure and poverty at this point.

Wtf is a western Maoist? The only Maoists I’ve met are old dudes who were part of the red guard

This is a western Maoist
I will say that Jason Unruhe has a good take once in a blue moon. But over the past multiple years he's become more reactionary.
