Dunking on Tankies from a leftist perspective.
A tankie is someone who defends/supports authoritarian or even totalitarian regimes who call themselves "socialist". The term originated from people supporting the 1956 invasion of Hungary by the Soviet Union. Nowadays they are just terminally online, denying genocides, and falling for totalitarian propaganda and calling such regimes "true democracies". remember to censor usernames when necessary.
Please be sure to obscure usernames on posts to prevent doxxing.

fuck, you got me there
edit: or maybe not, it's a pretty universal experience
Reminder to our resident tankies: None of the BRICS countries is communist or even close to it. You just like government painted red.
And there's Russia, a literal post-fascist country working with fascist and imposing fascistic anti-LGBTQ laws on its citizens and the world using asrtoturf NGOs like CitizenGo (any secular democracies not at least listing CitizenGo as a hate group let alone a terrorist group is committing suicide).
But if you could fuck BRICS, what would be your order of preference?
