    Daily reminder that Irish revolutionaries wanted to enlist the help of the German Kaiser in providing weapons and other military equipment. They purposely timed the Easter Rising while the UK was at war with the Germany empire, but I guess that’s “campism.” Irish people should’ve just marched with “neither Berlin nor London” signs instead.

      Marx fundraised for the Ottomans

      Lenin worked with the capitalist German government to arrange transport and resources for his return to Russia, they gave him a much needed boost

      Mao worked with the national bourgeois to defeat the Japanese invaders and imperialists

      Time and time again we see that alleged “campism” is often just pragmatism and necessary coalition forming by states, and socialists who defend those states against western attacks. Yeah, I’m a campist. The real socialist camp. Where the actual socialist global movement is happening, I’m with that camp, I’m siding with them. Deal with it westoids.
