Maybe a very different thing than normally gets posted here, but I found it fascinating. Basically, this video makes the argument that "tankies" are really campists, explains what exactly a campist is and how the campist worldview operates, and how that kind of argument shuts down real local anti-imperialist efforts by talking over them.

I'm not much for watching videos, but tankies are definitely campists. It's all about their 'tribe', not what actually serves people against oppression. Not any better than nationalists, tbqh.
