Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Please don't engage in anarchist erasure, we're not just a tankie instance we're an anartankie instance
I love getting called a tankie because that's what libs call everyone to their left now
3, 2, 1, Let's go...
TANKIE!
(I really want a version of the Cowboy Bebop opening but all the silhouettes are great tankies from history now.)
Need but it's
The anarchists are the biggest tankies of all
Please don't engage in understatements we're not just an anartankie instance we're the anartankie instance
Definition's changed. If you aren't a full-throated supporter of NATO in all circumstances, you're a tankie now. Don't take everything western oligarchs say about their official enemies at face value? Tankie. Don't want to build a throne of Chinese skulls? Please sign for your T-34.
It's salami tactics in action. Libs started out by applying the term to hardline Marxist-Leninists, then gradually sliced off more and more moderate tendencies until they could shut out anything to the left of liberal capitalism for being "reactionary."
I wonder wot Stalin wud have thought of the term 'anartankie'
