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". remember to censor usernames when necessary.

Makes no sense with the number of tankies using anime avatars on social media.

Redfash makes zero sense either and yet here we are

I’m confused by the downvotes, do we like redfash here?

Fascism is an incoherent ideology, including red fascism.
