Tankies are the kind of people who would definitely sell their soul for Trump if they had read another single blog post few years ago.

[-] Amnesigenic@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago

Anything's possible when you make shit up kiddo

[-] RowRowRowYourBot@sh.itjust.works 33 points 4 months ago

Nah some dipshits back Russian imperialism like their forefathers backed Soviet imperialism. Thus there are tankies who agree with Trump vis a vis Ukraine even if they disagree on when and whom it is ok to be racist towards.

Cool story

[-] modifier@lemmy.ca 22 points 4 months ago

Guys check out how erudite this tankie is.

[-] Amnesigenic@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Anecdotal evidence warrants no erudition

[-] RowRowRowYourBot@sh.itjust.works 8 points 4 months ago

You can find people on some instances that feel Russia had a right to resist Western encroachment in their border which ignores the whole invading bit.

[-] ThrowawayPermanente@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 months ago

What a protocol!

[-] Amnesigenic@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Sounds fun

[-] LemmyAtEm2@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Am I missing something? Aren't tankies just ancap? Also what is Trump saying that is anti capitalism?

[-] ChairmanMeow@programming.dev 15 points 4 months ago

Ancap is anarcho-capitalism, e.g. screw the government, stateless society where capitalism is king. Not entirely the tankie viewpoint.

[-] RowRowRowYourBot@sh.itjust.works 8 points 4 months ago

AnCaps are idiots that accept the Austrian school of economics.

Tankies are in general poorly educated leftists with limitied logical processing skills.

[-] TankieTanuki@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Tankies have been anti-NATO since 1949. It has nothing to do with the Red v. Blue spectacle.

[-] RowRowRowYourBot@sh.itjust.works 10 points 4 months ago

And they oppose NATO because they supported Soviet imperialism.
