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

Writing many and complex words to sound more "intelectual" won't make your take any less shitty
Using simple words and short sentences is good for upvotes, but I don't trust such comments.
Absolutely. Using verbose sentences can more fully demonstrate the level of douche you are.
Or maybe it's a way to condense ideas, which is literally the opposite of what you did (your comment would have been reduced to a line)
Trust for you is based off of how grandiloquent one can be. With opinions like yours, that tracks.
