Jesus Christ, this guy is going full Proudclad!

The Soviet Union responded to multiple strikes over working conditions by sending in tanks or soldiers to kill workers. So the question becomes why would people who claim to be socialist defend them so much? They never let workers control the means of production, they stripped them of their rights, they ruled with fear, they committed genocides and oppressed LGBT people. So why are they defending them? If they cared about workers wouldn't they advocate countries with great worker protections like Nordic countries? At some point it just becomes to ridiculous to keep pretending they actually care about workers or even socialism beyond using it as a buzzword to gain power.

Leftist anarchists and others of the like are good people though. Chomsky advocates a variation of that called anarcho syndicalism and other than thinking it isn't realistic due to the fascist threat, I think it's a great principle.
