MODERATORS
China and the USSR were authoritarian state capitalist - this isn't compatible with leftist values of worker enfranchisement and equity.
I don't care that they call themselves communist any more than the DPRK calls itself democratic - they're lying, and you'd have to be a fool to trust either.
Self-reflection is necessary to have good political prescriptions, but calling Nazis scumbags or centrists weak doesn't stop that Self-reflection in any meaningful way - you'd be a fool to seriously reflect on a statement from any idiot with a bad ideology and bad take.
Fair points
And good on you for living your stated values of introspection - I've got a hell of a lot of respect for that when it's the easiest thing in the world to dig in your heels when some interntet dipshit like me disagrees with you.
