My new favorite hobby is calling tankies bad-faith imperialist shills and implying they're not communist enough (lemmy.world)

The best part is everything I said is 100% true: tankies ARE in fact errand boys for the imperial elites.

It's so unreal for me, that they'd champion Russia and China of all places. I remember reading a comment from one tankie defending Xi removing his own term limit. "Clearly people like him, he has overwhelming poll numbers. Depriving them of the chance to continue to vote for him would be undemocratic"

Oh man, the irony. Do they not remember that China doesn't even pretend to have national popular elections? The people can't vote for Xi even if they actually wanted to!
