The former communist bloc took a lot longer than an instant. Their leaders were worshiped by some of the population.

North Korea is far left and their leader and his family are almost deities.

Uff... again someone who thinks that politics are binary and left is left and right is right. Sure, a leader cult dictator is exactly the same as a liberal social democracy. All the same, correct?

The North Korean political system is close to identical to Nazi Germany. Another "far left" country then, correct?

We all know that liberty, freedom of personal expression and equality are the main ideals of North Korea, correct?

This is the exact opposite of what I am saying.

The left/right spectrum is being conflated with the authoritarian/libertarian spectrum.

I've given many examples to counter the claim that "the left" won't worship a leader.

Wish I could still be this delusional. Ignorance really is bliss.
