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.

For those unaware, Houthi is one of the most extreme groups of jihad terrorists in the Middle-East, their flag is as follows:

"God is the Greatest, Death to America, Death to Israel, Cursed be the Jews, Victory to Islam".

A lot of tankies' ideology boils down to "west bad, thus critical support to anyone who is against the west".

Most tankies are western middle class who think that being anti-west is a valid personality trait.

You don’t think mature adults use “fr rn” in online discussions?

Or unironically use such imaginative and devastating insults as “Amerikkka”/“Imperial Core” (USA), “The Empire” (NATO), “Ukronazi”, or “Isntreal” towards countries they don’t like and want genocided
