those darn 1920s anarchists and communists, the most famous users of the term red fash, notorious right wingers trying to push people away from communism. 😂 so ahistorical.

i am mostly rolling my eyes at the self tells of me saying fascism is unconditionally bad and you taking personal offense at that and looking for leftist purity tests lmao.

🙄

you have yet to explain where you are actually hearing that lmfao. unless, of course, being against violent repression and fascism as a rule somehow insults your sensibilities.

i think the AANES have been very impressive in their efforts, personally. Funny how you dodged answering for how you got "doesnt support leftist movements" for defining tankie. 🤔

wild leaps of logic, care to show your work? i could use entertainment

Doubt it.

really searching for straws to grasp here eh?

on the brightside ya'll normally just can't resist outing yourselves.

someone who claims to be leftist but tacitly or gleefully supports authoritarianism, imperialism, or violent repression. Many are easily identifiable by their pointing to places that are not The West™️ and smoothing over, apologizing for, or denying, blatant horrors on the basis that they are unfriendly with the west. sometimes called red fascists.

It's actually important to ostracize these people as they are obviously the most blatant opportunists in leftist movements looking to implement authoritarian repressive regimes.

without linking to examples or analyses this is unhelpful.

another comment pointed out elsewhere that the titles are rarely made by the writer, so im inclined to believe that the atlantic recieved this piece and wanted to slant it for those who just read the headline, yeah.
