  • Real world dialectical material analysis

    I finally understood what has bothered me about more than a few Marxist groups, when Guerrilla History had professor Gabriel Rockhill on as a guest. Real Marxism is not a dogma nor religion., It's a scientific study that requires trial and error in the real world.

  • Ken Hammond fraud

    Ken Hammond Tianianmen episode has him

    claiming an absurd 300-400 PLA soldiers died in Tiananmen. Even according to historically contemporary and modern accounts of the event released by CPC/CCP officials, between 15-30 PLA soldiers and policemen died. The PARTY claims not even a tenth of the casualties Ken asserts. Totally fraudulent.

  • Not educated enough about the matters

    In this episode, they call a widely known terrorist organization a “resistance movement”, which is going against widely established historical fact. That keeps me wondering how good the hosts really know the subjects they talk about here. History is a tricky subject and it’s better to stick to the little facts that we have, instead of promoting opinions.
