Can we have something like tankiejerk here? I seriously liked browsing that sub after a bad day with the red fashs.
that sub often tended towards outright anti-leftism
That's the unfortunate thing.
Start criticizing the Soviet union and you'll end up with a bunch of people left bashing in general.
"tankies" criticize the Soviet union, you know? They also criticize the ebil See See Pee but apparently there's no room for nuance
What's your definition of "tankie"? If you're willing to call out Putin's homophobic journalist murdering authoritarian bullshit and the Chinese government's massacring of protesters and genociding of ethnic minorities you're not a tankie imo, you're just a communist.
well some people who are called "tankies" do. some of them are just rabid bhreznevites
