It was the tankies that stopped the Holocaust
If you judge "tankies" by our enemies, we come out looking pretty good.
Hence, BadEmpanada's point
I'm afraid I'm not familiar with this.
It's simply what it is on the can; BadEmpanada just used the FDR quote 'Judge Me By My Enemies' to make his point on a video to show he's quite principled
Lol I can't listen to him in a livestream-style-video for more than like 30 seconds but that "ooh, I can't imagine a better compliment than that" about zionist hate was hilarious. I also love when Zionists dislike me
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Nice.
But either way, let’s have a look at why Tankies don’t matter, and yet in a way, they really do!
But either way, let's take a look at why the enemy is weak, and yet in a way, they're strong!
Ironically, guess who one of the biggest killers of Marxists .. in 20th century Iran was?
I mean, in a >90% Muslim country, I'm going to assume they were.. a muslim? Quélle surprise.
Of course, globally speaking, far and away the biggest killer of Communists in the 19th century was an officially Christian Nazi Germany.
And second place, Christian Nazi America.
Oh my fucking god that article is pure 
It's worse than the most smug redditor shit. I only made it as far as the third paragraph before I wanted to gouge my eyes out with a fucking spoon.
Alright, who taught them the word this time?
Getting ever closer to fox news complaining about the tankies on hexbear
It's the year 2100, all our coastal cities are flooded, yet we're still complaining about a decision of ~~Stalin's~~ Khrushchev from 1956.
It wasn't even Stalin, it was fucking Khrushchev 😭😭
Lol sorry. I just speed read this article.
And one of few instances where he was correct. And no surprise here that every reactionary out there, either from the right or left, hate him for it, while praise his worst actions like coup and destalinisation.
100% It's just funny they name us after something he did, when most of us do not have too high an opinion of him. Like just call me a Stalinist - that's a name I can take pride in lol
use tanks
use of tanks is derogatory
pottery
this person absolutely busted out a thesaurus to sound smart but i must thank them for teaching me "birl" : literally to spin or cause to spin, but used in a sentence more to to mean 'having a good time'. from webster:
spent a good part of his time in Edinburgh birling into the wee small hours of the night.
i dunno if it will ever be useful but i'll see if i can work it into the ol lexicon
That's just Brits mispronouncing "whirl" I think.
Or this is how real (read: not that posh queen-talk) Brits say it. Idk, but I agree that it's a fun one
In the dizzying birl and buzz of the age of the internet, nobody can be blamed for not being entirely au fait with the latest online slang.
:kelly: (latest fad)
Lmao not a single "tankie" I know would ever veer into holocaust denialism
I have seen libs unironically claim that Holocaust denial was state policy in the USSR.
Nah, saying that what zionists are doing to Palestinians is like what nazis were doing to Jews is considered holocaust denying to these people.
You’re denying their right to commit a holocaust against the Palestinian people
Nowadays, however, the term ‘Tankie’ is used for a general ‘woke’ or superficial, virtue-signalling kind of ‘progressive’ politics and rhetoric
they just straight up admit its the "woke" of punching left
It appears that we are both weak and strong.
I dont even know what the point of the article was, and why did he include a straight up nazi tweet from Richard spencer as an example of Tankie rhetoric????
smug fucking assholes this is like if buzzfeed endorsed george wallace in 1968
also lmfao at invoking GNR’s Chinese Democracy in any context other than the album taking forever to make and disappointing all the fans who were left to listen to it
The only good that came out of that album was a free Dr pepper. Lol
Cute 😍😍😍 i want a tankie!!
