Was the Soviet Union more left or right wing? I would say it was right wing because it was anti-gay, anti-drugs, sexually puritanical, jingoistic, militaristic, imperialist, "tough on crime", pushed industrialism at the expense of the environment and even its "socialism" was authoritarian pseudo-socialism (more like Fascism) rather than anarchist eco-socialism.

"anarchist eco-socialism" this will never happen because thugs who want power will push the anarchists and idealists out of the way. Case and point is Joseph Stalin.
More correct wing
Correct = right, duh
By today standarts, the SOVIET UNION is considered right-wing.
Think about that for a moment
>left and right
Cringe npc take on politics.
Who cares? They are dead. They lost the Cold War.
back in my day, none of those modern-ass "left" or "right" tribalismbait buzzwords existed
this is all a ploy to divide and distract

It was left wing you fucking idiot. It followed far-left doctrine and many people who were open about being right wing were imprisoned, killed or exiled and most of them were tsar apologists. It was an authoritarian state which didn't tolerate degeneracy or any of that but that doesn't make it right-wing. Just read theory for fuck sake before you make a pointless thread like this.
Right has always meant pro liberty faggot commies and Nazis are both left wing.
It was leftist economically and strived towards some of those goals like promotion of the working class and achieving economic equality, as well as advancing the socialist cause in other countries and maintaining a brotherhood with other socialist nations across different races. They promoted a sense of internationalism in the context of having multiple national republics/races within the USSR borders along with their allies in the Warsaw Pact, Africa, Latin America, Middle East etc., a lot of international students would come to the USSR to study from these regions
Being anti-gay and anti-drugs was the norm on the left and the right, you just assume things are left-wing, and it was always so
Maybe if you laid off the drugs you wouldn't be such a massive tard
It was jewish. Kys kikel.
not another "it wasn't real socialism/communism" thread
You'd have a point if they dropped the Marxism. A fully centralized economy with the goal of achieving socialism on the road to a fully communist end-stage is left-wing. You could make a stronger argument for this during the period of 1921 - 28, but again there's still the issue of the Marxist state ideology.
>Nazis are both left wing.
>Nazis
>left wing
I envy your stupidity. You clearly don't know anything about Nazism you imbecile. There is nothing, NOTHING left wing about Nazis. Just because they have socialist in their name, doesn't mean that they are actually socialists. They were hyper-capitalists by the way, they have privatized every business in town and they did nothing to rid of the bourgeoisie (landlords, monarchs, etc). They literally let some of them join the party.
Commie flag is correct: replacing institutions with government agencies is the definition of Leftist. If your church is torn down and you’re turning in your parents for subversive thought, you live in a leftist society.
> They were hyper-capitalists by the way
No they weren’t you lying kike
Shittake on politics! You are obviously politically and economically illiterate you groomer
Zionism was illegal.
USSR was only these things because they saw it as excesses of decadent consumerism from the capitalist west along with compromising the health of their workers and they wanted the state to be as strong as it was capable of being in order to the best of its ability advance towards the theoretical end goal of a Marxist society. They wanted to encourage a healthy, fit, skilled population and invested heavily in the development of the people across lower social classes to allow for advancement and achieve the elimination of class differences, but it came at a price by trading it for more restrictions and increased statist regulation.
