      @@SpinoAdri2001 are you talking about lucanamarca? Where, previously, fascist ronderos occupying the village had killed a 17 year old PCP member? Or in any other village where in some cases up to 1/3 of the population was murdered by ronderos? At lucanamarca, undisciplined soldiers of the peoples army made grave mistakes, there is no doubt. Those mistakes had been admitted to by Gonzalo, who took prime responsibility. Now, where is the government’s responsibility? Their “Truth and Reconciliation Committee” was a committee filled with bourgeois social scientists, military officers, spies, etc. are those people trustworthy?
      Now, on Maria Elena Moyano: “María Elena Moyano was a poor, leftist, black woman, feminist and leader of the bourgeois women's movement and, for some time, deputy mayor of a Lima district for the opportunist Peruvian United Left. Today she would be hoisted by petty-bourgeois activism as the summit of intersectionality if her figure were better known. The South American Angela Davis, they might say. But she is already being honored, in her place, by the entire Spanish-speaking bourgeoisie. Moyano, whose counterrevolutionary positions were open propaganda against the People's War led by the Communist Party of Peru (PCP), thought that "revolution is not death or imposition or subjugation or fanaticism"[97] and, naturally, blamed these totalitarian evils on the communists. We suppose that she also wanted to feminize politics and put an end to that typically masculine death drive. Because of her active reactionary role as a transmission belt between the Peruvian state and the masses -especially women-, an annihilation commando, entirely composed of communist women, executed her in 1992. In strict application of the red revolutionary terror -which, naturally, made no distinction for the black of her skin or the purple of her ideology, to which any revisionist would have politically correct qualms-, her lifeless body was radically deconstructed in the middle of the street by the action of five kilos of explosives, outside the house where she stopped breathing. Four days after her burial, her grave was also dynamited by the PCP.[98] This is the true epitome of the ideological and political antagonism between Marxism and feminism, that is, between the revolutionary workers' movement and the bourgeois women's movement: the civil war between the two classes that the modern mode of production has produced.”
      From “Oportunismo y feminismo: breve historia de un matrimonio contrarrevolucionario”
