Except I am anarcho-syndicalist and aggressively socially left-wing
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.
But I will never understand anyone that holds China or Russia in anything approaching high regard.
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.
Edit: And, no. My comment didn’t come across as that. You obviously just wanted to read it as such.
Please explain how "reading socialist comments gives me diarrhia" should be taken.
