    No I don’t call people “to my left” commies. I even specifically said “Zohran isn’t a communist”. But by all means, keep attacking the strawman that you put up. Doesn’t change the fact that the Soviet Union was a terror state that screwed up several countries and killed millions (and if you need the clarification, millions after WW2 was over). I’m done talking to a wall, have a nice day.

    Edit: and to your point about the Soviet Union joining the allies - I would very much rather they didn’t start the war along with Nazi Germany by invading Poland at the same time, signing a nonagression pact with the Nazis, sending people to gulags where thousands died. But that’s a tiny detail right, who cares that they were one of the two that started it all.

      And yet, when prompted to offer solutions to the situation the US is in now, your solution was “ZOMG COMMIES.” It’s in this thread. Capitalism got us here, not communism. It’s clear that you have no solutions but don’t like anyone else’s.
