WHY I AM NO LONGER A REVOLUTIONARY COMMUNIST: A THREAD
(to be read in its entirety)

Hello, comrades. I was faced with a difficult decision to confront my political identity - something that has been brewing for a while - and I decided to approach the question resolutely.
I no longer consider myself a Marxist-Leninist-Maoist or even a Revolutionary Communist at all, in the light of a recent ideological discovery I made.
After having experienced being in group chats with you, mls, mlms, hoxhaists, anarchists, and with marxists of other types, I learned many things. But I feel like I must move on.
And while I greatly appreciate all the jokes, and theory discussions, and will always value the friendships I made, the following is the reason why I am pivoting towards an entirely opposite ideology.
Anarchists argue that being a communist is irrational, as all the past revolutions have "failed".
When a counter argument is provided, that all revolutions arose under different socioeconomic conditions at distinct times, lead to different results, had many different successes, and in their own ways improved revolutionary theory, twitter anarchist thought rejects this.
Instead it retorts that no successful ideology has ever existed - even anarchism - otherwise we'd be living in communism.
This made me ponder the truth, and while exploring the history of the different revolutions, I summarised the 4 factors that come into play when analysing the benefits a revolution had on a country's history.
1.) Workers rights
2.) Minority rights
3.) Education and welfare
4.) Democracy apparatus and contribution to revolutionary theory
But having summarised these 4, I never felt that the analysis is sufficient, because there is the 5th missing element. The element of truth.
In 1964, the Fifth Brazilian Republic ceased power, that lasted 21 years.
It has achieved many good and bad things, but one of them highlights this bright spot of history the most.
Throughout this period, the government, to avoid reliance on alien media, sponsored production of movies of all sorts. One of the sorts of the movies was pornography.
In 1985, a state-mandated movie featuring porographic bestiality with a horse got directed, following the request of party members, concerned with a lack of representation and scarcity of the previously-proposed film palette.
Behold, comrades, the 5th element lies bare in your sight!
I aks thus, has a single revolution, a single worker's movement, party or a union, a single anarchist uprising, a single revolutionary movement been able to replicate the same results, achieved by the government of Brazil?
Has the general population's thirst for government-mandated horse porn been satisfied?
Has the class struggle for truth been resolved once-and-for-all?
Has the horse-loving-nation of Turkmenistan reached these sheer never-before-seen social advancements made by a military junta?
The answer to these questions is no.

The 5th element, the element of love, has only been present in one revolution. And with this, I want to announce my new ideology - horsecocksuckinism.
Sex is our name.
Horse is our game.
Don't blame the player - saddle the game.
We must believe in a better world! And thus, I ask you, shake off your chains of imagination today, comrades,
And a new future awaits us tomorrow!
And may Arion, fruit of the womb of Demeter, soil of the all-mighty Poseidon, be the witness of truth of my teachings.
