"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

The accusations of vague posting are effectively deflection - the PSL does not have a meaty position on anything I have said in their literature or videos though I am happy for them to be answered
They are vague about this hence my questions. I am saying they have a lack of stances and that is worrying for a party that claims to be ML. Not once does anyone actually says: well the PSL says this about XYZ, it is all variations of "well it is challenging, what more can you expect" without ever addressing anything and then have the gall of blaming me for being vague.
The longer this thread is going on the more obvious the PSL has nothing to offer and the reasons for the empty defences is because it fits into westerners petite-bourgoisie sensibilities of empty protesting and trade unionism as a subsitute of doing the hard work of actually figuring what went before and what should be done instead going forward. It requires susbtantive investigations and class analyses.
You cannot answer these questions simply because the PSL has no answer for them otherwise you would have pointed them out. Instead you linked to things you have not read and called it a day, and then double down when called out on it.
