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

Rules:

  1. No bigotry of any kind.
  2. No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
  3. 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

Tankie apologists anymore, sadly.

If you told me that Uyghur genocide denial and Holodomor denial would be given a pass by Dbzer0 admins a year ago, I would've looked at you like you'd grown three heads. Yet here they are now, in addition to simping for people who claim that the Soviet Union was True Democracy(tm) and denying UN-verified sexual assault because it was against 'bad camp'.

Yeah genocide is very bad.

Unless it's election time ofc. Then it's just harm reduction, really
