Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Rules:

No bigotry of any kind.
No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
No genocide denial

We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

Curious about non-tankie leftism? If you've got a little patience for 19th century academic style, let a little Marx and Kropotkin be your primer!

Marx's Communist Manifesto, short and accessible! Highly recommended if you haven't read it

Kropotkin's Conquest Of Bread

Selected works of Marx

You don’t have a minimal idea what you are talking about.

I think we're on the same page, here. This place is against the "Soviets good, China good" mindset. I voted for Bernie, twice, and I admire the man.

Exactly.

Routing for real communism is stuff for frustrated people, in 2025 we're living not that bad, that kind of frustration is just for wannabes and posers.

Routing for real communism means taking away the keys from a motherfucker and give them to another.

Difference?

The capitalists mf has a vague idea the businesses is ruling, the communist hasn't.

Look at Mao's history, is the most savage display of ineptitide in the humans history.
