If you believe in democratic socialism, to tankies, you're a liberal.

"You think China and Russia should be socialist democracies? Pfft, what a typical liberal."

And if you're a Social Democrat like me, they'll think I have a shrine to Milton Friedman.

Most self-aware freikorps supporter, if you're a social Democrat you're just announcing to everyone that you are going to be predisposed to trying to accommodate fascism abroad if it means you personally get healthcare and economic benefits.

Social democrats arent democratic socialist but go on

Thanks for the demonstration, of tankie ignorance of the difference between socdems and demsocs, of how everyone not a tankie is a liberal or a fascist; and, ironically, what 'critical support' is.

Making a distinction without a difference. You're also acting like there's some vast landscape of democratic and/or socialists out there, just waiting to spring into power. That might be true, (I doubt it) but if your position on the most important question: "Do we continue to feed innocent bystanders into the war machine" is something you all have in common you're gonna get painted with the same brush as the rest of the more national socialists.
