        The bad stuff: Killing nazis and not giving a shit about the rights of monarchist weirdos and antisemitic landlords.

      Okay. Let's criticise both sides. I'll have a go:

      1. The US is an empire of evil founded on genocide and slavery. It has never made any attempts to shed it's rotten core as is evidently demonstrated by its seeming inability to do anything except for inflicting misery on workers, at home and abroad. America has no right to exist in its current form. Death to America!
      2. Although generally moving in the right direction China is a bit slower than I would like at improving things like the access to healthcare as an inalienable right and the recognition of LGBT rights. China's seemingly lack of ambitions to spread the revolution might be strategically wise but as a leftist languishing under capitalism you sometimes wish you felt some kind of support from the world's greatest socialist nation.

      There, are you happy now liberals?

        Leftist seem to have forgotten that the US govt is the single most dangerous entity in the world. Those people criticizing China from a "leftist perspective", should start from home. Even if one's an ultra, China is infinitely better than the US. And I wouldn't go around pointing fingers at them first if one's living in the imperial core(North America excluding Mexico, Europe, Australia). White people can't even get any left wing concessions at home(despite all that compromise) but they're so eager to shit on AES countries. There is one aggressor and that is the west. Educate your friends and families. That's more praxis than shitting on AES countries.

          Very confusing reply. The comment you are replying to was agreeing with exactly this sentiment, by sarcastically listing off the mildest forms of criticism while at the same time praising China.

            I wasn't replying to him directly. I should have added my reply to my original comment.
