Found the tankie.

Honestly What bullshit.

Tankie is a slur for authoritarian communists.

There is a healthy and honest way to appreciate communism, Russia, the CCP and even DPRK.

And then there are people who are completely shilling the CCP Russia DPRK as communist uptopias. These people are tankies.

If you are unable to recoginze the atrocities commited at any point in history, by the USA China, Russia , or any other country for that Matter. You're a chump.

Please tell us more about those healthy and honest "anti-authoritarian" non-tankie communists. Who are they and what political results have they made?

Sankara supported the USSR and DPRK, just like all actual communists do

Im not a communist, i am an anarchist.

[-] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 32 points 1 year ago

Then why are you telling communist to read about Sankara, a figure we already know and love

[-] Sprinklebump@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Becuase he is am example of a communist I support.

People keep calling me a liberal. Im an anarchist.

Sankara was ML like all the people you're calling tankies. I respect him too. What makes him good and and the rest of us evil "authoritarians"?

[-] bagend@hexbear.net 25 points 1 year ago

Because Sankara (sadly) lost. Baizuos can only accept communists when they lose.

[-] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 22 points 1 year ago

Exactly. They won't answer the question though.

[-] brain_in_a_box@hexbear.net 23 points 1 year ago
