Sure.
If you have criticisms of Marx’s arguments and analysis regarding the national question, then let’s hear them. But if it’s just gonna be, “it’s bad because states are bad,” I could get that from a damn an-cap.

Again, do you get that people are less likely to engage with you when you start the convention by insulting them? Call me a cry baby, I don’t care, but online tankies have to learn about outreach. It’s a self fulfilling prophecy that people you insult will not engage with your arguments. One basic argument is that structures of power will reproduce themselves. That’s why the state will not wither away but we need to build the movement in the structure we want to see in the end. I can point you to Anark as a content creator who engages with tankies arguments but I’m not motivated to put any more energy into a convention like this one.
