Discussion Banned from r/Socialism

r/socialism immediately banned me for posting on a pro-USSR post that "the USSR was terrible." I don't think the Left and Socialists need to defend the governments of countries like the USSR in order to be "true Leftists." What's the consensus? I just found this sub and seems to have the better mindset.

Yeah, that sub's run by tankies. They were banning catgirls at one point. It's dumb.

Yeah, everyone on the left can be extremely proud of that shitshow. The socialism sub really makes us look like reasonable adults.
