    It's just so weird. I know a few Ultras in real life and some of them are really well read in theory and yet they fail the absolute basics. Which is the part that confuses me. Like they have so much niche knowledge of Marxism but don't get the basics. How do you end up like this?

        Yeah my father was a naxal he used to say this. Inter commie fighting in 1960-70 was awful. There were hoxaists, romanian commies, khrushchevites, maoists and pol pot types 😁

            These western ultras are learning things here and there. We had left unity governments but truth to be told left parties fell apart when they went for important challenges. Like industrialization in bengal, CPM supported the Chinese way, right wing and left wing deviations moved away and helped ultra right wingers to kill the process and so on.
