    You people are disgusting. When the world was dimmed with counter-revolutions and the rise of neoliberalism, there was one group shining in the sea of darkness and that man was Chairman Gonzalo. Put some respect to the thousands of Peruvian peasants and his name for attempting to do something thought impossible in the 80s/90s.

      Respect to the many thousands of peruvian communists and probably tens of thousands of peasants that participated in Peru’s people’s war ? Yeah

      Respect to Gonzalo as a leader or as theorist ? Meh . Heavily , heavily flawed even if he didnt personaly order the specific village massacre(s)

            As far as I know he was there, and admitted full responsibility for it

            "Abimael Guzmán told the Truth and Reconciliation Commission “We, doctors, reiterate that we will not avoid our responsibility [for the Lucanamarca massacre]. I have mine, I’m the first one responsible, and I will never renounce my responsibility, that wouldn’t make any sense.”[
