Benefit of the doubt is the only reason such posts and responses even go up, but once they veer into obvious political propagandising we mark those posts trollish (where they're still visible), but hopefully discourage pointless debate / feeding of the trolls, who don't actually really care about whether some communist party said something or not about Chinese communism years ago or who is condemnig sexual harassment or not...
You've got an eye for spotting agenda driven threads, nice!
Although it won't hurt to give the benefit of the doubt to the commentators, For all we know it could turn out to be a healthy debate from both the sides :)
Please talk about legal arguments and views, and leave your repeated unsubtle attempts to pointlessly / irrelevantly introduce political propaganda and ad hominem at the door, or alternately face the censorship hammer of the liberal-intelligentsia-communist-spectre-of-Winnie-the-Pooh-moderator, thank you very much.
As for ALF and #MeToo, the AUD report found that interns were sexually harassed by LL with impunity and Clifton was a close and influential member of the ALF inner circle. It is perfectly legitimate to ask questions of him.
You've to give a proper reasoning for your actions, anything attacking left seems to be trollish at this point.
However, communism, unlike any other ideology is internationalist i.e., its struggle transcends geographical as well as national boundaries. Capitalism oppresses every worker (since its a class) in a similar fashion regardless of their nationality, religion etc. Hence, Marx proposed a true international collaboration among worker parties. Basically, this is one of the few ideas of Marx that communist parties have been trying to portray as if they adhere to.
I as a communist see this liberalization of the Indian Legal Sector as a welcome move. This is primarily because Indian Legal Sector is has never really been a free market (if it were, I'd have been opposing such a decision). However, the Indian Legal Sector, regardless of how progressive vibes it may cast upon a newbie, is feudal in nature and virtually the entire Corp-Law sector is cornered by a handful of Lalas. The scope of justice or equity within the Indian Corp Law Sector and is on the mercy of Lalas, existences of whom, obviously would neither allow justice nor equity.
Basically, in Feudalism, Liberalisation makes people's lives remarkably better. This is something that these Tom, Dick & Harry folks from political parties fail to understand.

1. What did he do at ALF when interns accused LL of SH?
2. What is his party's stance against Chinese atrocities against Uyghur Muslims and Tibetans?
Then let him lecture others.
