another example of you demonstrating op to the letter - playing victim. Just like all oppressors who seek to flip the script - white people who claim reverse racism is a thing, men who claim reverse sexism is a thing, transphobes who claim being called cis is a slur.

What a pathetic fucking clown.

It's funny too because I've been called actual slurs by tankies

I have separate distinctions between "Tankie" and communist.

Communism, true communism as explained by Marx. Classless, stateless. NO ELITE CLASS This is the goal. This is good.

Tankies seem to just want Putin or Xi to rule the world. Or are capitalists LARPing as what they think commies are in effort to troll. Probably both with some true believers filtering in over time. Sorta like the origins of r/The_Donald and flat earth theory.

TLDR Communism != Tankie

MAGA Communists are the tankies.

Anyone who simps for authoritarian state violence inflicted militarily upon civilians is a tankie and anyone who DOESN'T simp like that ISN'T a tankie, full stop, regardless of their espoused economic model. If you're not simping for a power-mad mass murderer, you're not a tankie either.
