You have to remember, the people making the tankie accusations consider anyone to the left of Joe Biden a tankie.
-
Do you still have several posts up wrongly shitting all over the place?

Karl Marx said communism is stateless. Tankies are named after their support of soviet tanks to put down revolutions. That's the opposite of stateless.

Lol, well I guess there are no communists then, not even Marx himself, as no-one has achieved statelessness.
Also, what a stupid image, it's literally just horseshoe theory with "I'm on of the good leftists" liberal boot licking thrown in

Catalan made their own "state" that's not stateless. Humans need societies and structures, we aren't tigers, we're weak hairless monkeys.

When hexbear federatedn with SJW, I spent a day arguing Russia invading is bad actually, North Korea isn't a democratic utopia, and China isn't a shining pillar of socialism. Then I blocked them all because that was exhausting. So idk if hexbear is still so tankie, but they definitely were at that point.

They sensor criticism of the CCP

Yeah, hexbear and .grad seem to be mostly tankie users, but it seems much more split on .ml. The admins are questionable, and I've seen tankies there disproportionally, but since it was the default instance for a long time, there are also a bunch of non-tankie users. I think lumping .ml in with hexbear and .grad really downplays just how bad those two are.

Looks like I chose a good instance! ^w^

Yep. The few I see are easily ignored. Or poked if you want to set them off.

No, I mean it's the new / local meme word to shut off conversation. And apparently used pretty much the same way right-wingers use it.

I'm curious where a lot of those folks come from/what their backgrounds are. I assume like 50% are Russian bots, but of those who are real people, how'd they end up where they are in life/their opinions? I have a hard time wrapping my head around it.

Am I winning?
