Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
Rules:
- No bigotry of any kind.
- No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
- 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

Communism is authoritarian because it puts the needs of a social construct (a "commune" or "society") over the needs, rights and freedoms of an individual. It doesn't matter how you want to paint it, it's always authoritarian.
I think that's a gross misunderstanding on your part.
No, I think that's a gross misunderstanding on YOUR part.
Well you would wouldn't you, what with the whole gross misunderstanding part?
Are you talking to a mirror?
As should be the fucking case, you chimp. Otherwise, I am free to bash your head on the pavement as part of my "individual freedom".
Oh look, Nazis are here.
Right, the famously Nazi Communists... can you make a single sensible remark, or is it all brain rot?
Come back when Commies start supporting human rights and freedoms.
All brain rot, got it
Visit a doctor then.
