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

Rules:

  1. 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.

This is so enraging, it fills me with an urge to punch a tankie in the face. Fucking fascist defending genocide loving clowns.

A lot of people on the right are weirdly cozy with tankies. They like to push them as the "real left" to make leftist ideas look worse for the average working class person.

Fucking hell, these people never gave a fuck about Palestinians did they? Like, have they just memory holed Trump's AI video of Gaza?

Remember when they were brown-nosing Trump for stopping Israel's campaign in Gaza, they've been fairly quite about that since Israel resumed and rammed up their genocide.

Not for a moment. They'll accept any harm to any group, so long as it lets them hold onto their campist worldview. Any time they claim to suddenly be concerned about effects and willing to engage in harm reduction "If only, if only", they're fucking lying.

Cinicism and apathy are valued greatly among tankies, no news here. After all someonelse's death is a sacrifice they are willing to make.
