Dunking on Tankies from a leftist perspective. A tankie is someone who
defends/supports authoritarian or even totalitarian regimes who call themselves
“socialist”. The term originated from people supporting the 1956 invasion of
Hungary by the Soviet Union. Nowadays they are just terminally online, denying
genocides, and falling for totalitarian propaganda and calling such regimes
“true democracies”.
It was so weird watching the do an about face and start praising the cops! And they made so many excuses for the entire DC police apparatus hanging them out to dry. I guess they got the message?
Also they are 100% Tienanmen brained.
"Uhh, do you support killed 10,000 protestors with tanks because if you do you're a tankie" is "when did you stop (CW: mention of DV)

hitting your wife
?" but much, much, much sillier.
"Yeah, don't you wish they had done that on January 6th though?"
gets some interesting responses.
Liberals loved Jan 6th, because it gave them permission to be pro-cop.

Liberals are obedient repeaters that take their marching orders from the NYT
I mean I would have, and I honestly can't fathom why they didn't.
Why would cops kill each other?
