Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
Rules:
- No bigotry of any kind.
- No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
- No genocide denial
We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

"USA bad" should be the free space, because anyone with as little as half a rotten brain can identify that it's true - The US is a shithole. That does preclude conservatives, of course.
We definitely have our issues.
Mostly, they are the ones other places can ignore because they aren't the cultural battleground for the world at large. Not that I'm complaining, since we're not generally the physical battleground for the world at large.
Mostly, there's not a good culture of actually facing issues and processing them, anywhere in the world, outside of some spiritual practices. If you're someone who does do that, though, the US is the place to be.
You far overrate the importance of your country.
