and

Japanese Communist Party.[4]
History
Germany
Reformist Marxism has its origins in the writings of Eduard Bernstein, who, while identifying with Marxism, felt that there were significant errors in Marx's writing, and often criticized significant parts of Marxist theory such as the idea of revolution to achieve a socialist society. His work would prove influential to later Marxist revisionists and what would later come to be known as Social Democracy.

Japanese Communism is an ideology based off of the Japanese Communist Party. It is a form of Marxism with major influences from
Democratic Socialism
and strong opposition to
Neoconservatism in Japan and a focus on maintaining Japan's national sovereignty.

Relations
Friends
Democratic Socialism
- Follows in my footsteps quite nicely but he can be a bit TOO utopian, even for me.
Eurocommunism - He gets me.
Iron Front - My great son who hates authoritarianism like me.
Left-Wing Nationalism - Yes, you can show your national pride without being an
expansionist militaristic
prick
Frenemies
Social Democracy - Son, what do you mean you just want restrained capitalism? Still much better than your
failed child though.
Marxism - You call yourself 'scientific' yet you oppose me for revising your theories. Don't you understand revision is the basis of science?
Libertarian Marxism - He goes on about how "the working class cannot use the existing state machinery to establish communism".
Imperialism - Bringing civilization and progress to backward non-class-conscious peoples is based... but can you actually uplift and enlighten them instead of just exploiting them?
Enemies
De Leonism - Stop calling me evil!
Luxemburgism - You abandoned my party and revolted against the Weimar Republic! Looks like
he gave you what you deserved.
Bismarckism - Got some right ideas, but I'll never forgive you for trying to suppress my party.
Showa-era Dictatorship - A bloodthirsty merciless conqueror, and a bloody hypocrite to boot!
Anti-Japaneseism - Believe it or not you can denounce Japanese imperialism without this insane racial self-hatred. Seriously, you're not well.
Anarcho-Communism - You're just a bomb-throwing utopian, who thinks you can build socialism by destroying the only institution that can provide it.
Leninism - You claim to hate anarchists, yet your idea of destroying the bourgeois state is no different from theirs.
Trotskyism - You too, but you're worse than him because you're basically a red Neocon. Also screw permanent revolution.
Stalinism - F*ck off, Tankie!
Maoism - Your "cultural revolution" was nothing more than pure genocidal insanity!
Marxism-Leninism - Are you not just Tankie again? Also I'll never forgive you for what you did to Czechoslovakia!
Marxism-Leninism-Maoism - You too!
Prachanda Path is extremely based though.Third Way - I don't even recognize my own party anymore.
Left Communism - You hated the United Front for bringing me in, you like authoritarianism, you hate revisionism, and your entire ideology revolves around a proletarian revolution. You're literally
Leninism but worse!
Dengism - Communist in name only! The treatment of Hong Kong and Uyghurs have NOTHING to do with socialism!
Neoconservatism - I just wish you'd finally stop that militarization and leave Okinawa.
