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

Rules:

  1. Be civil and 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 denial

We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion. For a more general community !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works is recommended.

Plants do not have central nervous system. Stepping on grass is not the same as stepping on kittens.

I agree. But then we run into the issue that it is "literally the same action but with different subjects."

Your previous comment implied subject does not matter; now you are saying it very much does.

Animals are individuals not property. So stop justifying animal abuse. God you’re one of the spineless types who just plays along with the atrocities of the modern day.

Here I thought we were having a debate. Silly me, thinking that you meant the arguments you put forward, instead of throwing shit at the wall to see if it sticks.
