There is definitely valid criticism to be made, but it can be a bit much at times. (sh.itjust.works)

I'd urge you to compare systems by comparing other factors as well. We know communism produced Stalin, but it produced Stalin as an alternative to the Tsars, who were not much better. The Chinese Empire was also not famous for its humanitarian values. We don't know how Socialist America would look like because it's never happened.

I'm not here to advocate for anything, to be honest I'm on the side of "let's solve actual fucking problems before arguing ideology", but I feel comparing the USSR to the US is a stupid comparison.
