    Sounds a bit conspiracy brained to me

    I mean, we live in an incoherent time, which can make incoherent ideas like MAGA Communism become relevant. Haz and Hinkle are probably supported by a LaRouchite group (is that itself an op?), but are they funded by some elites to tarnish communism with conservatism? I'm open to that possibility if there was concrete evidence to suggest it

    A Discord server – essentially a chat room – called “IGG MECHA-TANKIES”, linked to Al-Din’s show Infrared, has about 5,000 members and offers some insight into the movement’s internal dynamics.

    This seems bad that they're calling themselves tankies
