Anybody else feel so annoyed when western leftists say "It WaSn'T rEaL sOcIaLiSm" despite the massive evidence to the contrary? - eviltoast

It was really annoying back when I was a rightist but it’s even more frustrating now that I am a Marxist-Leninist that so-called “leftists” denounce pretty much every single successful socialist experience in history.

    Realpolitik/critical support. Russia balkanizes and now the US has several new vassal states on China’s border. Russia will also continue being punished for having been the USSR until the end of time, which makes them act in anti-imperialistic ways, not by choice like the Soviets, but outta necessity. Putin did wanna be NAFO afterall, but again, critical support. The enemy of my enemy and so on and so on

    It’s repeated constantly but definitely do read theory and take notes. Otherwise you’ll continue debates settled 100+ years ago and just in general be led around by the nose
