Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and no bigotry of any kind.
  2. No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
  3. 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.

The top comment on that post is so close to understanding that their support of Russia is still support for an overtly cruel empire. “I don’t support Russia’s evil, just its terror. There’s a difference.” I wish I knew how to link to their post in a way that wouldn’t redirect everyone to lemmygrad, but here’s the link.

“I don’t support Russia’s evil, just its terror. There’s a difference.”

Imagine trying to apply ideological revolutionary terror to a kleptocratic capitalist state. Tankies are deluded beyond belief.
