Left Communism

"'Left Communism' redirects here, for other ideologies see Left Communism (Disambiguation)"

Left Communism, also called Ultraleftism, is a far left ideology inhabiting the left edge of the political compass, and centre vertically, occasionally placed in a more libertarian position.

Left Communism is made up of several different ideologies who share similarities, including German Council Communism and Italian Programmism ("Bordigism), thus its use as an umbrella term. Among these similarities is anti-trade unionism, anti-nationalism/internationalism, and anti-parliamentarism. As well as the belief that true socialism is stateless, classless, and can only be achieved when the capitalist mode of commodity production is completely abolished. Every "socialist" who does not is merely an opportunist capitalist.

He loves to sit in an armchair all day reading Marx, Bordiga, Pannekoek, Damen, and Chirik among others, while complaining about other leftists. What is often forgotten is that those of the Italian Communist Left do consider themselves Leninists, being described as "more Leninist than Lenin". Lenin's work "Left-Wing Communism: An Infantile Disorder" criticised left communists in Britain and Germany who did not consider themselves Leninist.

Stylistic Notes
Left Communists are generally portrayed as sitting in an armchair, reading, theory, and nothing else. He often defends this behavior with "Theory is praxis." They are often depicted as being hyper critical and cynical to such a degree that no ideology will associate with him apart from Marxism.
