A tip of the hat to Guido Fawkes for this. The most upvoted comment, and two comments after it:
Corbyn never attended any protests calling for democracy in the USSR, he never demanded that East Germany release its political prisoners, he never campaigned against martial law in Communist Poland, he never angrily denounced the fact that striking was illegal in Cuba, his supposed commitment to peace didn’t see him protesting against the Soviet War in Afghanistan or Cuba’s wars in Africa and his alleged hatred of imperialism didn’t once see him march against the Soviet Empire.
Corbyn has never been an enemy of totalitarianism or against war or opposed to imperialism, he has supported all three when it suited him. The only thing that matters for Corbyn is socialism, nothing else. And if thugs wearing a Red Star on their uniforms have to murder a few million people to build the worker’s paradise then that is a sacrifice Corbyn is happy to make and delighted to justify.

But apart from that, what’s wrong with him as leader of a major British political party?
But I want free stuff, innit. Tory toffs. Fatcha.
