A ton of people, mainly leftist, have an issue where their ideology starts and ends at “AMERICA BAD”

Lmao. Nah, that's the (obviously, painfully true) statement where you already stop listening because you don't want to admit it's true without a thousand caveats. I've never met a socialist who couldn't elaborate, rightly or wrongly, in their many issues with political systems they support, let alone those they don't.
