      It was immediately “but stalin killed people though” and this one guy from an ex-warsaw pact country complaining about how repressive socialism was. i hit back with the fact that my parents are from china and then immediately this guy starts being a chauvinist about “human rights” in socialist countries. unironically us-foreign-policy which got some pushback because wow. this person was valorizing norway lol.

      God, Hannah Arendt is so insufferable.

      Talks so much shit about Soviet Union being totalitarian and fascist but she kept being friends with an unrepentant, card-carrying Nazi after the War ended. Says a lot.
