  I never said America was free of problems.

  That’s the issue with people like you; you see zero nuance. Any criticism of any (pseudo-)socialist group must be met with Whataboutism or other bad faith arguments.

      I’m happy to concede it’s zero without looking it up; it makes no difference to either of our positions here.

      It’s just a Red Herring for you to mount a soapbox to tell me and anyone who hasn’t blocked you yet how China Did Nothing Wrong and America Did Nothing Good.

      That’s why people evidently keep calling you a tankie, and that’s how you and I differ so I never get called a tankie.

      TL;DR: Not All Socialists Are Tankies, but All Tankies Think All Socialists Are Tankies.

  so many people prefer China over America.

  (citation needed)

  also, yeah, bombs are one thing, and i see your argument there.

  however, what moves people is largely the economic situation. people get dissatisfied with the US today because incomes are declining for the masses.
