Can we have something like tankiejerk here? I seriously liked browsing that sub after a bad day with the red fashs.
that sub often tended towards outright anti-leftism
That's the unfortunate thing.
Start criticizing the Soviet union and you'll end up with a bunch of people left bashing in general.
what with all the anti-communist fascists and all
"tankies" criticize the Soviet union, you know? They also criticize the ebil See See Pee but apparently there's no room for nuance
What's your definition of "tankie"? If you're willing to call out Putin's homophobic journalist murdering authoritarian bullshit and the Chinese government's massacring of protesters and genociding of ethnic minorities you're not a tankie imo, you're just a communist.
I'm confused on your point.
well some people who are called "tankies" do. some of them are just rabid bhreznevites
Nah, I joined their Discord for a bit and everyone there was a leftist.
didn't they have a problem with people doing alt-right dogwhistles about anti-white racism recently? and it got so bad that they had to make a mod announcement telling people to stop doing it and all of the users started trying to explain to the mods how it definitely wasn't a right wing dogwhistle
