Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Rules:

  1. No bigotry of any kind.
  2. No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
  3. No genocide or atrocity denial

We allow posts about tankie behavior, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion. Please redirect any Fediverse tankie-posts to !MeanwhileOnGrad@sh.itjust.works to avoid bringing drama to Piefed.social

Curious about non-tankie leftism? If you've got a little patience for 19th century academic style, let a little Marx and Kropotkin be your primer!

Marx's Communist Manifesto, short and accessible! Highly recommended if you haven't read it

Kropotkin's Conquest Of Bread

Selected works of Marx

I get a little bent when people act like America was fucking around before jumping in. Sorry, we were kinda busy turning our enormous country in a fucking war machine, while at the same time supplying our allies.

I do feel we Americans under credit the Soviets and the Chinese for that matter. We don't even bring up that Mexico committed a squadron in the Pacific.

We do take too much credit! But some don't give us enough.
