Can someone point me at one of these "tankies"? I only ever see strawman posts about how stupid they are.
Just go to Lemmy.ml
Post something controversial like "Stalin killed some of his own people" on .ml and you'll see plenty of them.
Either that or say NK is a dictatorship. When I first got on lemmy I got dogpiled by the hexies because I dared to say NK is a highly propagandized country (even gasp* moreso than the US). Still waiting for even a single one of those guys to move countries to live under the Kim regime, which apparently is the chillest, friendliest place on earth.
Nowhere on earth is more propagandized than the US. It's a literal $607B a year industry and it's infected most of the planet at this stage.
Another wild ml account appears. Go live in NK and report back for me on the level of propaganda.
US is absolutely more propagandized than NK lmao, NK dont even need to propagandize their people against US, they just need to tell the truth about the horrific crimes US commited there. What has NK ever done against US to be this demonized? lol.
US bad doesn't mean NK good, ya mook
when did I say that? good and bad are moralist positions, we marxists dont believe in moralism.
That's the wrong question
why? USA wiped out 12-15% of North korean population btw, they have every single right in the universe to demonize that country.
uh huh
?
yep
what yep? I dont understand your american language
should I translate it to korean?
yep
네
thanks, comrade. I understand it now.
Is that why you support the killing of millions of USSR civis? Like legit?
when you are in a making shit up competition and your opponent is a kamla harris voter liberal:
Yeah bro, I love Israel. Bouta murder and rape some brown people.
now you spittin
You’re all over this thread putting words into people’s mouths then get upset when someone does it back to you. Lmao.
It's not a strawman, that's just how how far out of left field they are.
An example https://vger.to/infosec.pub/post/37975928
I mean they exist, but it's like.. 3 people?
It's mostly bots, people get into argument with tankie bots and then make a whole fucking drama post about it.
