They also seem to have learned a new word to use instead of "Tankie": ML

Screenshot of a Curated Tumblr Lemmy post, which itself shares a tumblr sceeenshot: Hot take of the day a worrying number of leftists are just Evangelical Christians with the numbers filed off. The world is sinful/a capiralist hellscape, but we just have to wait until the Second Coming/Revolution when everything will be magically fixed. Any attempt to make actual progress makes you a lukewarm Christian/liberal anything less than the apocalypse/revolution, which we are forever waiting for by the way, is completely useless. Also consuming certain media or making certain lifestyle choices is sinfull and unchristian/bad praxis

Yeah, Liberalism isn't perfect, it's the "best of all possible worlds." which means we shouldn't challenge it because it will only make things worse. They usually love to quote Churchill on this, because liberals love their great man theory and think that influential people were just all soundbite generators.
