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.

America does something bad: "America bad!" (fair enough)

America does something good: "America bad!" (??????)

There is literally nothing that could interrupt their cozy campism. They're the exact kinds of people who would've given 'critical support' to Hitler's 'anti-imperialism' for as long as the Soviet Union told them to.

Fuck's sake. Imagine being an LGBT person in the USA, and blaming LGBT persecution in Russia on the fact that LGBT folk aren't as persecuted in the US as they once were. Utter morons.

Completely tracks with their preferred political course of "Aiming a gun at our collective heads and telling the people who want us dead that we'll pull the trigger if they don't give us what we want"

Fascists' little helpers.

This is it. There's nothing more ridiculous than this fucking image, you might as well close the community. There is no topping this.

What adult, looking at their monitor, blessed with a mind and free will; writes something this stupid?

I had two or three names at the top of my card. And this got it in one. You ain't seen nothing. This is just a day ending in Y for that one. Campist brain rot all day every day.

So what they’re saying is that the Russian government prioritizes propaganda over the wellbeing of its own people? That’s nothing new.

As a matter of fact, we’re trying that idea out in the US right now. Not a fan.

In 2028 Putin is going to attend pride marches and heavily condemn the anti LGBT Trump regime.

You heard it here first folks.

I've said it before, a certain instance has the weirdest takes. It's not just wrong, it's weird.
