Tankies != communists

Tankies are the insufferable fascists who take on a red aesthetic. There are plenty of great leftists, commies, and progressives who don't deny the Uyghur genocide or Holodomor or simp for Russia and the CCP. I'm not a communist myself (nor am I a capitalist for that matter), but I've got nothing against non-tankie communists aside from economic disagreements. Tankies I do have issue with, as should anyone who gives a rat's ass about the working class and basic human rights.

Also, lol at that Stalin profile pic. Literally fetishizing a genocidal dictator who betrayed the working class and murdered millions of innocents.
