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 [email protected] is recommended.

I think they consider tankie a slur, so that's probably it. I didn't see the mod logs, so thanks for looking it up.

It was you calling people crazy as an insult, which is ableism that they ban for.

You not familiar with the phrase? The gender neutral 'man', analogous to dude?

And why genocide apologist when I specify said it was wrong and I'm against it? I don't think you're making a good argument.

you're against genocide until the people being genocided fight back, then you concern troll about 'terrorism' like the people dropping US bombs aren't terrorists.

you certainly weren't one of the ones calling for an end to aid for Israel, you call them 'tankies'

No, I call people in favor of 'communism' flavored authoritarianism tankies, not people demonstrating against US Israel aid. I don't know how you got that opinion.

I'm sure you call everyone you don't like tankies lmao
