"How to deal with Tankies in your comments" really solidifies how terminally online this shit is.

Say what you will about DSA, but the mere fact that you have reformists, Anarchists, Trots, MLs, Maoists, etc. All in one org, working together, and being normal about it, would make the Anti-tankie crowd explode

As someone in DSA, it really annoys outsiders when they find out we're big tent

Do Nothing

Accelerationist

Pick one

sit-back-and-enjoy

I think most accelerationists don't actually do anything. It's a very online ideology.

Edit: Edited the wording to make it clear I wasn't trying to confront you on this.

"Genocide denying" "don't know communist history"

wonder-who-thats-for

[-] invalidusernamelol@hexbear.net 22 points 3 days ago

It's literally just Holodomor and Uyghurs. Those are the only genocides that ever happened.

[-] AnarchoBolshevik@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 2 days ago

No, every people’s republic committed genocide just by existing.

If you disagree, you’re a monster.

[-] invalidusernamelol@hexbear.net 9 points 2 days ago

When you reply to me and call out things I'm saying that are lies, that's tantamount to genocide and you deny it.

[-] AnarchoBolshevik@lemmygrad.ml 47 points 3 days ago

To repeat something that I wrote two weeks ago:

I don’t need to remind you how much anti-Bolshevists overuse accusations of genocide, but something that I think that most of us overlook is that they actually seem very disinterested in all of the psychological, cultural, environmental, and even the economic effects of extermination campaigns, yet far more interested in it as just another policy that they need to oppose; something on the list that needs to be crossed off and then forgotten.

I have discussed how Jews trapped in Axis ghetti suffered ‘accelerated ageing’, I’ve spoken of how the Fascists destroyed thousands of synagogues, how the Fascists stole countless paintings that Jews owned, how grandchildren of Shoah survivors suffer more mental distress, and more. I’ve betalked annihilation attempts of little interest to anti-Bolshevists, like the Medz Yeghern, the Samudaripen, the massacres of Namibians, the proto-Shoah, and I would like to bespeak the Sayfo in the near future.

Can a similar level of interest be attributed to that anti-Bolshevist? I doubt it.

[-] sangeteria@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago

I read your proto-Shoah post! Incredible write-up.

[-] MolotovHalfEmpty@hexbear.net 64 points 3 days ago

"You tankies don't know communist history!" I yell as I recite literal Nazi propaganda at a Vietnamese avatar online for not getting out the vote for Kamala hard enough.

[-] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 41 points 3 days ago

Tankism is just calvinism

I'm sure that person will have some very compelling arguments

[-] WhatDoYouMeanPodcast@hexbear.net 26 points 3 days ago

stuff this is sarcasm because it's the most inane thing currently uploaded to the Internet

[-] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 65 points 3 days ago

"Tankieism is Calvinism" sure is a thing that a person put down on a whiteboard. I've never seen an "anti-tankie" that wasn't some WASP type, but sure, being pro USSR and anti US is somehow magically pro-Calvinism. It really feels like that CHUD thing where they get called something as an insult (i.e. Calvinist) but don't understand it and just go "no u".

[-] KuroXppi@hexbear.net 28 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I'm a Hobbesian-Calvinist calvinball

[-] TrustedFeline@hexbear.net 16 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

They see that communists are weird about sex and think that makes them calvinist. Ridiculous.

Everyone knows tankieism is papist. The more i think about it, the more upset i am that they went with calvinism instead of calling Xi the pope of communism

[-] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 8 points 2 days ago

I know right? Stalin was the Pope of Communism, then the position was passed to Mao and the leader of the CPC, who has held the title ever since. SMH, anti-tankies don't even know basic communist ecumenicalism.

the dialectics of cool hats

[-] manuallybreathing@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 days ago

At least my bookshelf of books I haven't read isn't full of liberal trash. Fucking wow i just googled what the 'free peoples village' is about

In an alternate 2020 timeline, Al Gore won the 2000 election and declared a War on Climate Change rather than a War on Terror. For twenty years, Democrats have controlled all three branches of government, enacting carbon-cutting schemes that never made it to a vote in our world. Green infrastructure projects have transformed U.S. cities into lush paradises (for the wealthy, white neighborhoods, at least), and the Bureau of Carbon Regulation levies carbon taxes on every financial transaction.

English teacher by day, Maddie Ryan spends her nights and weekends as the rhythm guitarist of Bunny Bloodlust, a queer punk band living in a warehouse-turned-venue called “The Lab” in Houston’s Eighth Ward. When Maddie learns that the Eighth Ward is to be sacrificed for a new electromagnetic hyperway out to the wealthy, white suburbs, she joins “Save the Eighth,” a Black-led organizing movement fighting for the neighborhood. At first, she’s only focused on keeping her band together and getting closer to Red, their reckless and enigmatic lead guitarist. But working with Save the Eighth forces Maddie to reckon with the harm she has already done to the neighborhood—both as a resident of the gentrifying Lab and as a white teacher in a predominantly Black school.

When police respond to Save the Eighth protests with violence, the Lab becomes the epicenter of “The Free People’s Village”—an occupation that promises to be the birthplace of an anti-capitalist revolution. As the movement spreads across the U.S., Maddie dreams of a queer, liberated future with Red. But the Village is beset on all sides—by infighting, police brutality, corporate-owned media, and rising ecofascism. Maddie’s found family is increasingly at risk from state violence, and she must decide if she’s willing to sacrifice everything in pursuit of justice.

comrades you aren't going to believe this, but the tiktok video is infact liberal horseshit https://www.tiktok/ com/@simkern/video/7642777812725779743

Fuck me that's enough internet for today

[-] SpookyBogMonster@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago

Interesting that the Dem wet dream alternate future still produces the conditions for Revolution ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[-] lil_tank@hexbear.net 46 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Always hilarious to see accusations of tankies being online. Personally it's irl activists at uni and participating to blockades that convinced me ML was the right path. If I didn't experience that and just scrolled Reddit back then I would probably be a disconnected succdem now

[-] Saymaz@lemmygrad.ml 25 points 3 days ago

The same happened to me.

To the tune of that one beastie boys song

Tankies are RIGHT more often than NOT, you could admit THAT or let your brain.... ROT

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 8 points 3 days ago

Internationale communism, communism internationale

Tankie is anti-vaxx, tankie is flat earther, Tankie is anti evolution, tankie is jar-jar binks

[-] calmblue75@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 days ago

Tankie is also anti technology, anti progress, anti lgbtq+, anti freedom anti(insert anything here).

[-] LaBellaLotta@hexbear.net 34 points 3 days ago

People like this have never even heard of the PKI or the Indonesian Massacres of communists and trade unionists

[-] invalidusernamelol@hexbear.net 12 points 3 days ago

When you're so deep in genocide denial that you don't even think you're denying anything.

[-] ColombianLenin@hexbear.net 35 points 3 days ago

Tankies do nothing

Spoken like a true white brunchie

[-] Keld@hexbear.net 25 points 3 days ago

The X is Calvinism thing is funny, and it's funny that it's being turned on communists now. Hoisted by our own petard, except the petard was always a fucking dud.

[-] corgiwithalaptop@hexbear.net 47 points 3 days ago

They hate us cause they aint us comfy-cool

[-] Andrzej3K@hexbear.net 28 points 3 days ago

I am SO fucking tired of internet progressives blaming everything on 'Calvinism'

[-] LeeeroooyJeeenkiiins@hexbear.net 19 points 3 days ago

Calvin didn't do nothin to deserve all this blame he is just a child

[-] sangeteria@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 days ago

Hobbes, however...

[-] Keld@hexbear.net 16 points 3 days ago

Guys this is something started by chapo fans by way of Matt Christman. This is fully on this very community. This is fully spiderman pointing at spiderman.

I'll admit, I can't help pointing out when supposedly agnostic/atheist yankees are acting from a set of unexamined protestant christian assumptions about the world.

[-] ChestRockwell@hexbear.net 9 points 3 days ago

To be fair Calvin basically is at fault for the turn to material goods by American protestantism

[-] Andrzej3K@hexbear.net 9 points 3 days ago

I just think all these theological arguments are stupid - whether it's Dawkins blaming everything on nebulous 'religion', or people blaming the middle east on shia/sunni tensions, or the supposed incompatibility of Judaism and Islam, or blaming America on 'Calvinism'. They are dumb explanations.

[-] AssortedBiscuits@hexbear.net 6 points 2 days ago

It reeks of "Christianity was awesome until Paul/Augustine/Constantine the Great/Leo IX/Martin Luther/John Calvin ruined Christianity forever."

[-] Keld@hexbear.net 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I did see someone here posf "Modern christianity is a perversion of the greatness that was the medieval Church" to some upvotes at one point. We get weird about religion

[-] PaulSmackage@hexbear.net 26 points 3 days ago

"Genocide bad"

At least the Tankies actually do something about it, instead of whine online like you.

[-] cisco@hexbear.net 17 points 3 days ago

The Judeo-Calvinism-Bolshevism plot to ratio me on social media

I'm in this picture and I don't like it.
