The Democratic People's™ Republic of Tankiejerk

Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and 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. For a more general community [email protected] is recommended.

Uh... Reactionary classes?

Feudal or non-capitalist elites, or pre-'imperialist' capitalist bourgeois (ie oligarchies as liberal capitalist democracies would disdain them).

This is the most mental effort I've put into understanding a meme in quite a while. Still worth it, though.
