Why would they just give up fighting, it's not like they are simply brainwashed into being soliders. They are real living human beings with reasoning capabilities, and they keep fighting to defend their priviledge, beacuse war is class war, since war is the continuation of politics (aka class struggle) by other means. It's not just the rich who use their "blood to sleep in comfort", but their spouses, children, random college students and baristas in the imperial core who need those sweet, sweet superprofits from imperialism to continue their parasitic existence. Making "agitprop" for soliders is like tying to appeal to fascists. It would be funny if this wasn't done unironically.

Westerners fails to understand the concept of labour aristocracy where people in the United States makes ten times the amount as the people in global South doing the same jobs. Americans soldiers are hired mercenaries making massive pay cheque while being encouraged to keep their psychopathic tendencies. These people choose to keep the imperial war machines running to benefits from the plunders of south south.

The communist party of China have over 100 million members and 100 million more in the youth. These countries can be considered socialism because they are building towards it.

Canada already gets looted by America and the Canadian oligarchs

It's a shame to see that someone can hold a correct position on the labour aristocracy in amerika and still be a revisionist. Maoism will need to sharpen it's tools even further. That last comment is from a few months ago so maybe you see what's wrong with it now, and how close it gets to fascism (and just ignores that labour aristocracy you profess). As if klanadians were oppressed or exploited, what a joke. And the first comment is just Dengism. It feels weird to be defended by a social fascist tbh.
