Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
Rules:
- Be civil and no bigotry of any kind.
- No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
- No genocide denial
We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion. For a more general community [email protected] is recommended.

Well first of the Azov brigade was taken apart, subsumed by the military, and had it's neo Nazi core group removed. If you want to mention them you need to remember Ukraine 2023 is not Ukraine 2018. Second, the political wing is a minority in the government much like the Freedom Caucus in the US, the Golden Dawn in Greece, and the current majority in Italy. Having dumb people in your country does not make you fascist. It's an entire ideology that does not co-exist with democracy.
Does capitalism coexist with democracy?
It can, obviously. Like anything else too much can be bad.
Capitalism best coexists with democracy.

Name another system that capitalism would work better with.
Name another system that has produced better results than capitalism.
Note that socialism is not, in fact, when the government does things.
