Also, why the fuck are some "leftists" picking the US over China. America is a fascist police state that's compromised its democratic appearances whilst desperately clinging to its empire, pushing the world to nuclear annihilation. Conversely, we know little about China outside of propaganda.

Same is true for the Fallout universe too :diaz-canel-troll:

    this template sucks if you aren't using it for really spicy shit.

    Axis-Allies in WW2? what conversation is there to have? fascist or every liberal and left ideology

    Enclave in Fallout? fascist or lib again? Caesar's Legion is a little interesting with third choice but still done to death. "Commonwealth" is kinda fun because bethesda so poorly fleshes out the politics theres room to argue but its not binary

    but Real shitslinging candidates for this would be like : China v. Vietnam 1979, Paris Commune v. National Convention 1794, Angolan civil war, Spanish Civil War but POUM v PCE v FAI(fash excluded),

      Nah, it’s been great for exposing the hypocrisy of some.

      The amount of people claiming to be on the right side of WWII but also supporting the right wing autocracies like the RVN, ROK, and even fucking Spain under Franco is too damn high.

        i mean conflicts that just out idiots & scum aren't very interesting to talk about. someone marks rhodesia thats just "oh they're a racist" end of story

        leftist infighting topics and complicated historical events hardly anyone has the expertise to formulate a 'take' on (but won't stop anyone from trying)---now that's entertainment. tell me why backing Cromwell against Ireland is leftist. tell me how shi'ism is stalinist and kharijites are trotskyist. :stalin-feels-good:
