As a leftist, I just dislike tankies. Libs aint leftists. Libs are status quo chucklefucks that think they're superior to conservatives without doing anything different.
So you’re left of liberal and right of what you consider tankies?
Kind of a narrow band you exist in.
The right/left distinction kind of breaks down when you start considering authoritarians with left-wing economics. That left is very keen on purity in a way I'd call cryptofascist, with an emphasis on the fascist.
Oh look, it’s the whole ‘everything I don’t like is fascism’ argument with the added wrinkle of ‘you can’t see it because they hide it, trust me bro.’
I'm talking about things like the Khmer Rouge, give me a break.
Well, I respect your tenacity.
