In reply to the discussion: Greeks maul pro-bailout parties: exit polls [View all]tama
(9,137 posts)28. Right side?
Hierarchic, uncooperative, authoritarian... introverted puristic orthodoxy and militant opposition to other "progressive" forces, especially anarchists - KKE refused to participate in the occupy movement and ordered it members not to participate. And it's refusing to participate in the Syriza governement, even though it's a Marxist statist party. Only form of cooperation for KKE is "with us or against us".
Greek Communist party could have taken over after the WW2, but took orders from Stalin and did nothing.
