In general, aligning with Tankies for any reason, ever, will just trigger a reactionary bias against whatever message you're promoting. I'm not saying I dissagree automatically, but it's the opposite of helping your case.
When Tankies agree with a statement I have to stop for a moment and reassess how that statement can be used to maim and destroy western democracies or if they're just making another show of pretending to have morals.
Yeah we can both hate tankies (lovers of brutal dictatorships) and reddit (a now sucky media platform).
This post is quite crappy and wrong IMO.
Western bourgeois democracies, a.k.a. capitalist oligarchies.
fucking tankie
