What is a tankie?
Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes or their allies. More specifically, the term has been applied to those who express support for one-party Marxist–Leninist socialist republics, whether contemporary or historical.
When I am tired of a post, I either downvote or ignore the post.
You seem to care enough to leave a comment, thanks.
Ironic because instead of just downvoting lemmy.ml posts you don’t like you wrote this long winded unnecessarily life wasting post. Imagine being you and spending an hour collecting links for a point literally no one cares about. Touch grass.
You sure seem to care a whole lot.
Yeah because I care enough to speak against tankies. Thanks.

Only a coward would think autism is an insult.
I get why you have nothing more than a surface-level understanding of the content of your own post when you take someone disagreeing with you as reaffirment that you must have been right in the first place. I ask you to consider whether it is possible that how you perceive these so-called tankies is tainted by your willful lack of understanding of their positions.
