Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Rules:

  1. No bigotry of any kind.
  2. No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
  3. No genocide denial

We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

Curious about non-tankie leftism? If you've got a little patience for 19th century academic style, let a little Marx and Kropotkin be your primer!

Marx's Communist Manifesto, short and accessible! Highly recommended if you haven't read it

Kropotkin's Conquest Of Bread

Selected works of Marx

Are they all just going to lie and say Russia won anyway? Or will they just cry for these poor Ukrainians who are now part of Ukraine again? It's so hard to guess what is going on in their minds.

They will do what they have always done: Lie by calling themselves left, praise dictators and whine about "the evils of the west" or NATO expanding.

And we do what we always do and what is objectively correct: Laugh even harder at them coping, roping and seething over their boy Putin loosing and ruining his country.

I can't wait to remind them for the rest of their lives how much of a failure this was for them, as anyone should.

While I agree, the expression "Roping" kinda feels off considering what it implies.

I'd rather not make fun of suicidal people >_>
