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

As a largely unengaged Lemmy lurker, y'all need to take a chill pill, this feels like an excerpt of the red scare. Picking a fight with the anarchist techies because one dude has an opinion that's not even unhinged, about something that most of us here cant even talk about with any certainty.....come on.

This whole thing is actually overblown and misrepresented.

predictable tankie behavior

it should be noted that the above account is an IDF propaganda account, so they absolutely do not consider the genocide in Gaza to be a genocide.

Do you deny the genocide in Gaza?

Oof. Out they go for genocide denialism.

Illogical arguments that assume that there's some collective Western authority I.e. propaganda ministry that is at play here. Many individual journalists and historians have studied this topic. There's nothing to deny here, even credible sources have confirmed that China accepts the existence of education camps.

Yes, you quite proudly simped for Russian imperialism and claimed that Ukraine wasn't a 'real' country. I wouldn't be suprised if you were a supporter of Uyghur genocide and the Holodomor as well. Fuck off, fascist.
