It's weirdly satisfying watching the right fracture. Being on the left, we fracture over the most trivial and academic points despite being the party of solidarity and mass power. I hope we can grow the current excitement and victory into something notable.
The main fracturing on the left is primarily caused by ideological purists (aka tankies), who refuse to even consider that going from current capitalist systems to communism doesn't happen at the flip of a switch and we need to slowly but surely push for more and more progress towards it. Mind you the same people in the same breath will go on and praise authoritarian, state-capitalist systems as if they're an example to follow, so...
Ideological debate should always be welcome when relevant and not detrimental to the goal. After all, everyone's perspective is different and mutual understanding is a must for mutual respect. Even if we disagree on topics, debating them with logical reasoning is the way, and while that might look like fracturing, it's still a much better option than, say, pooling behind a child rapist mango with pubes on top of it, just to appear united.
This existed before tankies and there has been issues with popular fronts in the past. This video is funny because it has more than just a grain of truth.
