If youre still specifying social and economic policy as seperate in this context than you've still got a lot more reading and political development to do as a leftist.
The soviet union defeated the Nazis, and China is defeating the US primarily through peaceful means Both massively improved quality of life and political rights. If those aren't things to be conditionally admirable about as a leftist than you seem a very strange leftist.
Please explain how "reading socialist comments gives me diarrhia" should be taken.
Well, you're blatantly wrong about political freedom in China (seriously? LOL). Also, the Soviet Union alone didn't defeat the Nazis so fuck off with your tankie revisionist history. You seriously have no clue what you're talking about.
Furthermore, because you've outed yourself as a tankie, this conversation is over. I will not engage with the likes of you, a pseudointellectual.
Oh, were they better under the KMT or the colonial Japanese? Gotta say bud, your coming off as not very historically literate.
Didn't say they did. They just spearheaded it, being responsible for 80 percent of german casualties, and losing 26 million people for their troubles. Britain or the US wouldn't have been able to defeat the nazis by themselves. Continental Europe would still be the third reich without those dastardly tankies.
From the towering intellect that thought the KMT or the colonial Japanese provided more rights than the PRC.
Also "outed myself"? Really? That sure implies revealing deception, and I've been nothing but open and honest about my views.
Nuance is for good countries like the USA, UK and Australia. With them you can say when they fall short of their ideals that they are trying. With evil countries like the USSR or China they don't deserve historical understanding or nuance so it's either perfect or terrible, clearly.
