Tankies?
Authoritarian campist bootlickers pretending to be leftists. They have far more in common with the right wing than leftists and can often be found trying to defend Russia, China and North Korea. Lemmy's developers are tankies.
they share the same talking points thats why. its almost always "lib this or that" or even calling it woke, although they dont use that word, they say something similar.
Yea, like 'communists' who have gone so far 'left' that they will stand by authoritarian regimes like China and the USSR despite evidence showing them to be abusive to citizens in similar ways to capitalism.
Anyways, farewell, for I must away again before they hunt me for sport like they did during the Russian revolution. (I am an anarchist, btw. Welcome to Lemmy)
USSR and ccp are more to the right than the left, but tankies dont know that.
yea, that's what I was implying, hence the quotations around "communists" and "left" (technically I used apostrophies, but I use *nix, so same difference)
Ah, I see. Sounds like a shit group.
It's the new word for "pinko."
And it says exactly the same thing about the person using it.
