Just like fascists of old parroted leftist language, modern day fascists will and are doing the same.

I've heard one communist commentator say we should especially watch out for how American fascists will start talking about fighting the "settler colonialism" of climate refugees.
That is deeply cursed
I know. It seems so possible considering how the far right have so thoroughly demonized refugees in the span of a decade.
Zionists already have aggressively tried to paint Arabs as colonizers (within Palestinian land) for forever. This isn't new.
It's a never ending arms race between the people using language to clarify things and build class consciousness, and the reactionaries deliberately misusing language and misapplying terms to rob that language of its purpose.

this author probably got told to "write whatever you want, but include these five key points". and probably given the title
Impressive find.
Haven’t they also tried this with the various nationalities of Russia?
The Marx and Engels of 
ideology
The take seems to be "Every attempted coup in Russia is actually an independence movement, but the actual independence movements in the Donbas are 'Russian seperatists' and Ukraine is right to shell them"
lol they do this to Russia too. if you oppose US empire they are going to hire mercenary academics to decorate US attacks as progressive support for some oppressed group.
we even know what happens when the US' "commitment" to these people is tested---rebel Kurds in Syria & Iraq get hung the fuck out to dry by the Yankkkees when they don't serve US ends anymore despite decades of US media talking up how US invasions were supporting and had the support of the Kurds. and now their neighbors don't like them because the US came 'on their behalf'
Okay, link works for me, at least.
