I can’t really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by “both” sides of the spectrum. It’s just something I find interesting.

I see just as much if not more complaining about “tankies” as on subs like subredditdrama, it’s not that leftist

I literally saw a guy earlier today in that one large memes thread trying to convince people that Eastern European countries yearn for the USSR days.

Only tankies try to do that lol.

A lot of people there do yearn for the return of the USSR. You can argue about why, but the polling is quite clear that many people miss socialism

“Ask people from Socialist countries what they thought”?

“Wait, not those people”.

Why respond honestly to a response when you can instead grossly misconstrue it and reply with a straw man?

I’m commenting in support of the person I’m replying to. I don’t understand what you mean by this.

Welp, I’m a dumbass! I apologize, I thought you were doing exactly the opposite, but I see it now.

Text is hard. Sorry.
