    I have so many questions. I guess I never viewed as “tankie” as left.

    Hell, I consider myself far-left to the point of being a progressive, almost to the point of being an anarchist.

    But my reality is rooted in actual facts.

      Note that the term “tankie” has become an anti-communist trope to demonize any person who’s to the left of free universal healthcare.

        I know you made that up and you have no idea of what you are talking about because you included Russia there.

            To them anarchists are Tankies for not saying Gaza is filled with rapists. Check goat’s ban log from his .zip alt. He legitimately said Gaza is filled with rapists.

            MoG is a fascist utopia. They have had actual Nazi dogwhistles upvoted.

            The comm of misfit posters used to have a lot of open ideation about purging “degenerates”, they’ve dialed it back a bit ever since I called them out about it.

            You guys will call anyone tankie, even anarchists.

            Every time I look at the modlog for someone there loudly complaining about ‘the tankie triad’ there’s almost always a ban (often a temp one) for either being a bigot, insulting people, or doing ‘both sides bad’ about the genocide of Palestinians.

        You are in the echochamber though, and you just make shit up pretty much every time I see you post.
