Tumblr liberals are basically just pink reactionaries.
Meanwhile, in an alternate universe (that could be ours): "Yes, our planet got seriously messed up, but thankfully even more serious damage was prevented because workers rose up against the billionaires who were killing the planet."
I don't see why you should believe most westerners, they've consumed too much propaganda.
"USSR/China/Yugoslavia/GDR/etc. was a corrupt, dystopian hellhole where nobody got food and everyone was poor!"
"What, you mean you lived in those countries and you said it was GOOD?! You must be a brainwashed commie!!!!!!!"
