Teaching liberals the word "tankie" was not okay. Not even for a bit.
Worrying about internet tankies is like being afraid that people that roleplay as dragons on a forum are going to swoop down, burn your house and steal your silverware for their hoard
It's a redscare to try and instil anti-communism in the soft left. Once injected into them they'll outright pull up the shutters on anything to the left of them and that benefitsliberals/socdems/etc. The ideological socdems are bigger anticommunists than the regular liberals actually.
/c/furry's coming for more than just that toothbrush
How do all these communists keep infiltrating my anti-capitalist group?
Dunno why any "tankies" would waste their time with an overwhelmingly lib ass sub
Like they're fucking nuts comparing posting about "tankies" to being the Kronstadt sailors
r/vaushv saying that tankies are planning another coup
r/genzedong who's just editing the country girls make do meme to have Khrushchev :cat-confused:

Good thing Hexbear is full of :LIB:s or I'd never even know this happened.
Got called a tankie on ToiletPaperUSA for questioning why a user assumed the US is a democracy but Leninist, "vanguardist" states like Vietnam and Cuba aren't.
The real good time was when reddit started banning all chapo subreddits and for a couple days people created communities like /r/chapotraphouse2_2_2_2 and /r/chapotraphouse5 through /r/chapotraphouse100
every single one of those was made a year before the ban, when original cth shut down as a joke
Some of them, yeah, many others were created after the ban. Some of them were banned within minutes of being created
cth5-100 existed before the ban, and so did 2_2_2, funny enough the last unbanned chapo was the hornyposting chapo

The questions start coming and they don't stop coming and they don't stop coming-
Other than the tankies we know of, there's gotta be at least one fucking mole amongst the other admins and that's an even bigger problem because until we find out who the tankie mole is, this shit will just keep happening every few months until they finally take over the sub.
FUCK TANKIES!!!
what insanity in the comments. Lots of people saying "your being weird and not making any sense, we see more anti-tankie posts than tankie posts" and they just keep doubling down and never release they're more obsessed with being anti-tankie than getting anything done.
if they can keep track of all his nonsense day in, day out, they could probably do a fair job with some theory if they put their mind to it. Replace the candy with some vegetables, and we shall see a healthier mind.
as long as they don't get too drawn into the forum warring self gratification, i think the inevitable collapse of the Vaushist worldview has the potential to actually radicalize some of them.
If all the pedophilia comments haven't done so yet, I really don't know what will.
we need some kind of Reddit Unamerican Activities Committee
If reddit is run by ccp then why wont liberals shut the fuck up
Honestly, I love this unhinged liberal shite. It's a guilty pleasure for sure.
"I can fix him." :thonk-cri:
No no no. You can't look at the United States' 250 year track record of genocide, slavery, pogroms, lynching, apartheid, colonialism, imperialism, ecological destruction, psychological warfare and religious fundamentalism. America is an unfalsifiable ideal and if you're against that, that means you hate FREEDOM.
i cannot fathom how someone could possibly call themselves a leftist and not think america bad, like what could possibly even remain of your "leftism" if its so shallow that its still compatible with thinking america good
edit: this is not me being rhetorical, i am genuinely puzzled
what could possibly even remain of your “leftism” if its so shallow that its still compatible with thinking america good
Youtubers; "we are communists and we are patriotic Americans!"
But America is bad.... Also, you can argue about all the others on the list if you want, but if you claim to be a socialist but dont support Venezuela you are full of shit. Literally the Chavistas are one of the best examples of actual Democratic Socialism in action, there is ZERO reason to do anything but give them like 100% support while they are under siege like they are. Every single "DemSoc" I have come across who doesnt support Venezuela has ultimately proven not to because they are just fucking racist because they have the unconscious assumption that brown/indigenous people cant do socialism.

Those people will also turn around and say "Tankies are all white Westerners" while totally ignoring that the most successful "tankie" states are all POC.
"Most Tankies are white people!"
No, statistically most Tankies are Chinese.

TANK MAN YELLOW MAN BAD WINNIE THE POOH TIN MAN SQUARE
Lol right? I think acknowledging that we're pretty much the bad guys, or at the very least have been the bad guys, is much more common these days. But lotsa people still slurping down the slop.
Fucking absolutely massive giant loser ass nerds. Jesus Christ, be radical if you're gonna be radical. Fucking frogs shit babies
Nobody ever shat on right wingers quite like the Red Army did.
I'm always reminded of this when the topic comes up :marx-ok:
Probably didnt happen, but if it did it would be hella cool
I'm pretty sure this was debunked because the guy playing the piano is literally wearing the same uniform as the laughing tank guy
Now play Montero!
Please make it stop!
Keeep complaining and I'll make it Squidward Nose
I also remember a story of a Soviet soldier who was caught surprised by some nazis and managed to beat the shit out them with a captured panzerfaust/panzerschreck warhead.
I want to make a word filter that replaces the word "tankie" with "spooky scary skeleton".
Found some good fodder over on r/spookyscaryskeletonjerk:
Why do spooky scary skeletons hate art?
So this is a question I was thinking about last night over some posts that have cropped up here over the last few days.
The spooky scary skeleton utopia that they hope to achieve post-skeleton-war is very much, to the rest of us, a stark, ruthlessly utilitarian dystopia where one can be a great many things: an agent of the bone, or get fucked.
And the fetishisation of specific occupations (all of which are obviously practical, efficient, and cold. Dentist, skeleton army soldier...that’s about it) is something I’ve seen before but not really thought about until looking at the posts in question.
Why is it that bonedry types only value these purely utilitarian jobs. Is there no place for anything more eclectic in their world? Do they think no one would want anything more? That the very existence of culture is a symptom of an ailing society not blessed with undeath? Is true undeath not the perfect opportunity to free ourselves from our shackles and pursue what truly makes us happy and, in turn, probably create some pretty sick shit?
I don’t know, so I thought I’d posit the question because I’m very curious and other people tend to know more than me.
A bunch of Trots and anti-revisionist MLs who had no idea the type of evil they would unleash upon the world.
I'm not trying to be sectarian, but wasn't it anarchists who coined the phrase?
Anarchists are the biggest users, I think, but I'm pretty sure it was coined in response to the "Khrushchevite" suppression of the Hungarian counter-revolution, whose critics would've been Trots and anti-revisionists.
