It's the dunk tank. This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes. Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted. Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is [http://archive.is/] instead of linking directly. Rule 3: No sectarianism. Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd) Rule 6: Do not post fellow chapos. Wreckers/CHUDs are allowed. If they aren't banned yet then report them, don't post them. Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

I met this really condescending kid in a mental hospital once who believed that Stalin was great, that a ton of genocides were fabricated by the west, along with a more general praise for communism and the Soviet Union.

So, is that what this place is? I know it's on the nose but I promise this story is true and that I'm not just shitposting, I am just genuinely curious because if there is an entire community of people like him who think that they've got it all figured out, that would be incredible.

    Well, on one hand kids are kids, sure of everything they do until it crashes. On the other hand is probably a decent understanding of Marxist economics and politics (not strictly (or often) electoral) in general. With that person you met there could be any number of reasons why they were like that.

    You do need to be more specific about the claims of genocide fabrication. That wording has an indeterminate meaning that could range from post-war Nazi propoganda of "Double Genocide" to things I might argue were genocidal done by the West at large like the Korean or Vietnamese wars.
