    Welp, i guess there we have it. I’ve so far managed to avoid provoking them myself, cross my fingers I don’t get on their bad side.

        I have no way of knowing if that’s accurate, nor to i have any way of knowing what it was that got you perma’d.

        I probably wouldn’t say that, because the US defeated communism (according to their own accounting). I would tread lightly around anything I may not agree with them on, but I do happen to agree with them on a lot. At least most of them. Half of them. Maybe slightly less than a majority of them.

        What can I say, they aren’t a monolith.

          You can say that Stalin was bad, right?

          What can I say, they aren’t a monolith.

          But their hatred towards diversity and dissent is

              Bad on what grounds? His Soviet project certainly didn’t last, I think that failure is bad. He had quite a few deaths under his leadership, that was pretty bad, too. But it’d be crazy to discuss Stalin’s failures without acknowledging the post war reality: a depleted and war-torn Russia, former allies (who just dropped two atomic bombs on Japan to make a point) immediately resuming hostilities and sanctions against his fledgling national project, and the isolation that comes with being that cold-war black sheep that nobody wants to play with. From that perspective it’s suddenly not surprising that his project failed, even if you think he committed huge atrocities on the way down.

              If you disagree with Stalin, you’d better be quick to acknowledge the systemic conditions that contributed to his failure before you get to blaming him for the holomodor lmao. Fair game if you think his leadership decisions were huge mistakes or weren’t justified, though they’ll probably disagree.

              damn that didn’t take long at all, what is it with you guys and your inability to disavow stalin’s atrocities? poor, poor Stalin’s USSR was forced to do genocide, they had to kill all those people :(

              Lenin is screaming at you

      Did you inherit a thousand years of piss-poor takes or are you just great at making shitty opinions?
