Has /r/socialism_101 been compromised? I have noticed over the last 2 or so months some incredible takes in the comments and this thread is even locked.

I usually don't really care but this kind of thought is on par with libs that use "utopian" when talking about Marxism. Just so confidently wrong. I'm not even that well read yet on theory but, Jesus, this set off my lib radar bad.

    I live in the States and it's extremely authoritarian here but others will claim the USSR war actually authoritarian. Our women have virtually no rights, we don't help the homeless or poor and expect them to die, we have a poverty to profit prison pipeline, our healthcare is behind an employee-controlled pay wall, and we have the electoral college so our votes don't even matter.

    That's just Freedom™, silly.
