        "I can fix him." :thonk-cri:

        No no no. You can't look at the United States' 250 year track record of genocide, slavery, pogroms, lynching, apartheid, colonialism, imperialism, ecological destruction, psychological warfare and religious fundamentalism. America is an unfalsifiable ideal and if you're against that, that means you hate FREEDOM.

        i cannot fathom how someone could possibly call themselves a leftist and not think america bad, like what could possibly even remain of your "leftism" if its so shallow that its still compatible with thinking america good

        edit: this is not me being rhetorical, i am genuinely puzzled

      But America is bad.... Also, you can argue about all the others on the list if you want, but if you claim to be a socialist but dont support Venezuela you are full of shit. Literally the Chavistas are one of the best examples of actual Democratic Socialism in action, there is ZERO reason to do anything but give them like 100% support while they are under siege like they are. Every single "DemSoc" I have come across who doesnt support Venezuela has ultimately proven not to because they are just fucking racist because they have the unconscious assumption that brown/indigenous people cant do socialism.

        Those people will also turn around and say "Tankies are all white Westerners" while totally ignoring that the most successful "tankie" states are all POC.

          "Most Tankies are white people!"

          No, statistically most Tankies are Chinese.

        Lol right? I think acknowledging that we're pretty much the bad guys, or at the very least have been the bad guys, is much more common these days. But lotsa people still slurping down the slop.
