The above link will take the reader to a post published on the blog of the Buddhist-Marxism Alliance UK – an organisation founded in Oxford and linked to numerous academics. It is decades old – but every so often disappears and re-appears as time allows and circumstance dictates. In its latest online incarnation – I have had the honour of holding the post of In-House Scholar – and have been responsible for gathering all the evidence of demonstrating just how similar Early Buddhist ideology and Classic Marxist philosophy actually are. This has been a fascinating journey that has exposed the Communist Party of Britain (CPB) (and its Morning Star Newspaper) as being a Trotskyite-front with pro-Muslim tendencies. Like everything else, particularly on the left, there is much deceit and a layered misdirection that must be penetrated and exposed over-time. The Branch Secretary of the Croydon Branch of the CPB once emailed me stating that he “did not like Lenin” – an extraordinary admission from a representative of a party that at least rhetorically claims to be “Marxist-Leninist”. Mind you, he once chaired a meeting a Ruskin House in Croydon (which I was at with a friend) where he asked the bizarre question as to whether the USSR was “right” to fight the Nazi Germans during WWII – with the Trotskyite bias that it was not! And on and on it goes.
Of course, it is the young who are vulnerable to this type of dishonesty on the left – as it drives them to the right. Not only that, but the current left is riddled with White dominance and perpetuates just as much racism as the right – whilst denying it is doing so. The corrupt left likes to pretend that whilst the White middle-class dominates it – the racism it displays does not exist. All lies of the highest calibre. Again, if you read Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Ho, and Che, etc, none of this is new and we must all battle every generation to make genuine Marxist-Leninism available for each new generation. The Morning Star eulogises the mirky world of professional boxing when everyone knows it is a thoroughly exploitative vehicle for the rich to pay the poor to beat each other up for the entertainment of the latter. Laughably – the CPB continuously demands that its members support the bourgeois Labour Party – which proscribed the Communist Party in 1921. Trotsky would not only turn in his grave – but build a three-storey extension to celebrate this ridiculous revisionnism!
