Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
Rules:
- Be civil and no bigotry of any kind.
- No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
- 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.

TBH, redefining racism as "prejudice plus power" in an academic setting is way more useful, otherwise most "anti-racism" scolars would be researching the negative effects of PoC making fun of unseasoned food.
That does make sense, but it's just that some try to redefine it in regular conversations which has the exact same behaviour be either racism or not racism, depending on who says it and who is the recipient. And that just makes it weird, it goes against the common definition.
