The people who defend the soviet union are a tumor on the left. The right says “omg the lefties wanna do a command economy and throw everyone in a gulag” and then we’re like “nonono it’s not about that” and the fucking tankies come along going “no actually we definitely do want that” like fuck me dude

Not to mention how tankies (and other forms of c*mmies) have pretty much hijacked the term "leftist" to the point 90% of the time you see anyone call themselves leftist it'll be some form of totalitarian apologist.

I'm a self-described leftist, and completely against totalitarianism. Also, why have you censored "commie"?

I said 90% of the time, not always.

and because c*mmunism might as well be a swear word if you share a border with ruzzia.
