Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
Rules:
- No bigotry of any kind.
- No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
- No genocide denial
We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

The amount of mental gymnastics here is worth olympic gold.
Uhh guys? This is definitely fine, right?
This tankie seems unaware of how the CCP manipulates public opinion.
If this kind of news ever reaches China, the authorities would always attribute it to crime, drugs, sex work and so on. They would portray it as the government improving the social order instead of violating human rights.
Tankies are well aware of the authoritarianism. They believe it's for the greater good.
That's why they're asking for the "real" reason. He wants the BS PR answer to blindly believe so his worldview doesn't need to change.
So glad I filtered that instance
