its so easy to be a western liberal, you can just de-legitimize every single progressive revolution in history because none go completely perfect and you never do anything because god forbid you commit a single error and thus be literally the same as the people in power who straight up murder people for fun.

They genocided opium yes.

You’re literally blaming communists for the deaths of a civil war with multiple factions and you’re compaining about being objective lmao. Are you even aware of the conditions that led to the civil war in China? These events do not happen in a vacuum you know?

There is nothing more cringe than seeing americans debating wheter they’re fascist or not due to X or Y politician rhetoric when they have been dropping bombs abroad for their entire existence.

8 billions to israel! oh wait that is neither “leftwing” nor it benefits anyone but zionists

them billions to israel surely benefited everyone

The “boring corporatists” in germany put Hitler in power btw

You say this while most of Europe top politicians are bankers i.e. friedrich merz and macron or aristocrats i.e. VdL

Socialism with chinese characteristics.

China is a controlled market economy where capitalists hold no political power. Tho there is not that much regulation as people think there is, people are very free to enterprise as long as they comply with the general direction of the CPC.

you could come up with the best theoretically possible electoral system and it won’t change a thing since ultimately, the state in the West serves the capitalist class.

you can try to isolate any point of time you want and ignore history but the matter of fact is that nazi germany invaded the soviet union and everyone and their mother knew it was going to happen since Hitler was not particularly shy when talking about his goals on the region or his views on the “judeobolsheviks”. this nonsense that the soviet union wanted to “secretly join the axis” is ahistorical and frankly dumb.

lol can’t say i am surprised

if its in wikipedia its a proven fact lmao.

"the claim that the Soviet Union was at the time threatened by Hitler, as Stalin supposed … is a legend, to whose creators Stalin himself belonged.[288] In Maser’s view, “neither Germany nor Japan were in a situation [of] invading the USSR even with the least perspective [sic] of success,”

its crazy that there are statements like this, when the invasion literally did happen.

Let me put this clear, if countries go to war with each other, are they allies or enemies?

The soviet union was an ally of fascist nazi Germany.

aight 😂 i must’ve imagined the war then

totalitarian is when capitalists hold no political power, thus intrinsically evil.

u dropped this 👑

The Soviet Union did more harm than good to the leftist movement and is used as the scary example every single time someone begins to think twice about the capitalist system they live under. Socialism is forever tainted by the USSR and severely struggles to remove that image. Fuck the USSR.

The soviet union literally stopped nazi germany from doing a gargantuan genocide on eastern europe, it’s quite literally the biggest leftist victory hitherto and even now these eastern european countries still live off the crumbling infrastructure built during the soviet union period.

Only idiots parrot this narrative that the USSR was unimaginably bad, please educate yourself and purge this comical perception of the USSR, it’s only there to make you think there is no alternative.

Read Alexandra Kollontai, the liberation of women from household oppression was something they actually did give a shit about and was intentional.

counterpoint: if you give up your nukes you will be bombed and invaded
