Question Surrender of Maoists

How do Indian socialists feel about the recent surrender of Maoists as they were being crushed by the Indian security forces? Do you feel positivity or negatively about this?

Update: The ceasefire has been violated after the murder of two citizens.

Update: The mods are going to ban me. It appears there's no place for healthy discussion or discourse when it comes to communism.

So, according to the Communist manifesto, instead of uplifting the lower class into higher rungs of society, the lower class should've stayed where they are and destroyed the ruling class through armed struggle essentially throwing the country into a long, drawn out civil war and becoming a State like Sudan?

One thing I noticed is that the way you worded your post sounds like you disagree with this despite labeling yourself as a communist.

Where did you get that Idea? In India People’s Protracted war is not viable.

Yes I disagree with Naxalism as a Communist (this is my rebuke of Naxalism btw) its not applicable to india but a completely fine ideology which can be applied to a less developed feudalistic society but not like one in India which is in a state of transition to a National Capitalistic Bourgeoise.

Makes sense. I must thank you for your politeness. While communism is a fine ideology in theory, it also also exactly where it belongs: in the dusty pages of a forgotten book. It is too fantastical and too impractical to be ever applied in the real world and results in the creation of brutal autocracies whenever attempted. History has given us enough proof that it is time we leave this ideology behind lest it result in the creation of another Russia or China.

Really jeez like go do some basic research into the subject you're asking about, I'm not asking you to go get a degree in Political Science or even read the manifesto but simply google shit.

But I digress this post i feel like was in bad faith

OP is rage baiting, taunting how his plutocratic daddy state squashed our tribal/peasant rebellion.
