    I’m not a communist myself, and I don’t really mind them, as I’m reasonably far left… but what I do mind is that many of those who have a communist ideology seem to think they must agree with probably horrible communist regimes.

    Being a communist doesn’t mean having to defend China in everything they do. Being a communist doesn’t mean you have to support Rissia because NaTo BaD. Being a communist doesn’t mean you have to pretend Stalin (or any of his successors) was a nice guy.
