Seems like this community is now living rent free in their heads.
The rent is entertainment.
but nah for real, they talk about this instance quite a lot now.
So they are landlords now?
This "yogihos" cunt is the worst tankie of the lot ironically. And the lot of them are russian apologist morons or bots/agents. I would say defederate from them but I like to sometimes here this stupid views to give me some perspective
They are a hypocrite, yeah. Their family migrated to Canada from Russia but then talk about how bad Canada is and how good Russia is.
like bruh, your family left Russia because of how bad it was.
The worst part of this for me is that none of them are even communist really, they just hate NATO and love modern day Russia for some weird reason?
Like I actually like the idea of proper commune style communism, being a fairly far left socialist (and also wanting to see the capitalist/imperial American system fall and/or replaced with something better). But none of these lot are actually communist in the slightest (as I said) they are literally just anti-west / pro-auth / pro-Russia people...
They are pro-authoritarians. It is the authoritarian part which they love. It is pure chance that they have fixated on communist terms, because they could as well be MAGA fascists, they share all their opinions with that crowd, which loves authoritarianism as well.
From my experiences with extremists, they are all the same people. Anti-social people who can't even be bothered to clean themselves or their homes, resort to drugs and addictions and have no social life or creativity. Instead of blaming themselves for these faults, they turn them to the world and ride the dopamine rush of a small group of people who insist they are in the right.
Well said. I don't doubt that in the future, Communism will be the norm, assuming humanity will be kind.
But as you said, these users are not Communists.
Also a lot of them are born into wealth and just have extreme daddy issues.
Yeah it's hilarious. They can move to any of these communist utopias at any time, immigration isn't expensive and these nations will happily accept any westerners...
but none of them ever do it. Because they don't actually care about communism.
Migration is expensive, and those countries aren't communist, but still
They can certainly afford migration to Cuba, Vietnam and China. These nations aren't particularly wealthy.
I was wondering why I saw so much blatant russian propaganda when I first joined, blocked the yogthos account, suddenly not a single piece of it.
That's because they are an immigrant from Russia. But for some reason they don't return to Russia. it's weird

What is a Tankie?
Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.
(caution of biased source)
Basic Rules:
Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. — Basically, don't be a dick.
Hate-Speech — You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.
Apologia — (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.
Revisionism — No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users as it handwaves their extremism.
Tankies can explain their views but may be criticised or attacked for them. Any slight infraction on the rules above will immediately earn a warning and possibly a ban.
Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post as opposed to arguing.
You'll be warned if you're violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction will double the amount. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.
