@InfraHaz

Everything you were ever taught about Communism was based in lies. The facts show this plainly.

Communism has always been the destiny of America. Only now, we are entering an era where this will become evident to all.

You cannot stop history itself.

So, InfraHaz is a literal actual no-joke Tankie. For all the shit random people scream about Lemmy.ml and Hexbear and Hasan Piker, this guy actually deserves your scorn.

Throwing up the flag of the Russian Federation on your profile pic and ranting about how Putin did nothing wrong - fuck this guy.

I would be careful of using "Tankie", you are using duopoly talking points where they use simlar words like "woke" and "far-left" just as an easy way to dismiss the discussion.

Looking at Urban dictionary, it all seems like status quo talking points.

A hardline Stalinist. A tankie is a member of a communist group or a "fellow traveller" (sympathiser) who believes fully in the political system of the Soviet Union and defends/defended the actions of the Soviet Union and other accredited states (China, Serbia, etc.) to the hilt, even in cases where other communists criticise their policies or actions. For instance, such a person favours overseas interventions by Soviet-style states, defends these regimes when they engage in human rights violations, and wishes to establish a similar system in other countries such as Britain and America.

An apologist for dictatorial regimes with atrocious records on human rights, so long as those countries are not the US. A person who thinks that because the US is flawed, and has done bad things, that that means that countries that are or have traditionally been our adversaries (generally communist countries) are actually perfectly fine places to live, and everything bad that you hear about them is a Western lie. Someone who goes beyond just being a communist or socialist, into defending some truly awful regimes, a tankie throws out the baby with the bathwater.
