All this time and I hadn’t clocked that tankie was referencing the Tiananmen Square massacre.

It's not. It's referencing the Hungarian Revolt of '56.

I thought it was something related to think-tanks or something

Hahaha.

Well, in my heart of hearts, this is who it's really talking about.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
