But they are denying the current persecution of the uyghurs; denying the various historical atrocities like the holodomor, Tienanmen square, the katyn massacre, etc; excusing the ones they can't deny; and simping for authoritarianism. Oh and lets not forget a decent contingent of them agree with nutomic that transness is bourgoise.
So what you're saying is tankies should be violently persecuted for their words with no other provocation by people like me who disagree with them. Lucky for you, were we arguing IRL I wouldn't get violent until you do, because I'm not a piece of shit. Enjoy it all you like, and I'll judge you all I like.
