By all measures, you should hate Sankara as well. Be consistent.

i dont think. so sankara did some really cool things.

The USSR did some cool things too , AT FIRST: then they started murdering anarchist and consolidating power and becoming a police state. As an anarchist I oppose this.

Maybe Sankara would have done the same if he lived. But he didn't. He was murdered in a US back coup. He was murdered for being an anti imperialist.

The USSR is not anti imperialst. Neither is the CPC. These communists experiments became police states. Sankara didnt.

Sankara fought for nitrution, literacy anticorruption anti imperialism. He put more women in government snd fought against female genital mutilation. Anarchist support all of these things.

What we dont support is police states. Among other things.

A number of those anarchists were counterrevolutionaries. Some, I'm sure, were good people.
