Yeah, I do think some communists spend a little too much time defending the USSR’s controversies, but I think our time is much better spent focusing on the positives and asserting that this is what inspires us. Whether those human violations existed or not, we are not inspired by them and are irrelevant to what we believe.
Our support for the USSR comes from a place of wanting to learn from past experiences rather than glorify them. Unfortunately the USSR is gone, and we must do better today.
