    Yeah, at this point the word “tankie” is used so liberaly that communists are just one type of “tankie”.

      Karl Marx said communism is stateless. Tankies are named after their support of soviet tanks to put down revolutions. That’s the opposite of stateless.

        Lol, well I guess there are no communists then, because not even Marx himself, as nonone has achieved statelessness.

        Also, what a stupid image, it’s literally just horseshoe theory with “I’m on of the good leftists” liberal boot licking thrown in

            Catalan made their own “state” that’s not stateless. Humans need societies and structures, we aren’t tigers, we’re weak hairless monkeys.

            Ok, I think I’m comfortable resting my case that you contorting the meaning of the word ‘communist’ beyond reason.
