There're all kinds of people here, and to keep it cool we tacitly choose to point mostly the good things about current left-wing governments, from Zapatistas to China. The same for past left-wing govs from Spanish republicans to the USSR.
We all understand whatever form of human organization and historical process will have "bruh moments", and we discuss them without getting pissy. Saying "look, China's HSR is awesome" don't mean we are all cool with every single policy they have ever done.
Also we all agree in not supporting some historical figures that have shat the bed tremendously from the start, namely Pol "CIA-funds-enjoyer" Pot and Gonzalo "The baby boiler".
This "don't shit on current left wing governments" rule is not only because we don't want to fight, but also because 99,9% of users don't come from said places, so any "fight" is basically a slap fight of terminally online westoids.
Oh, and if you find "hate" against "Social Democrats" is because they aren't anticapitalist and history has showed that even them being good people leading successful governments, their good policies are easily reverted by capitalists (local or foreign) or they just collaborate with them against more radical left wing positions. Still, if you wanna play the capitalist democracy game and vote or campaing for them that's cool. Every yank here voted for Bernie.
