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

Left unity: Working together despite disagreements, and engaging in discourse to make compromises and reach agreements

Tankie left unity: Nobody disagrees with me

(That's my real problem with tankies. I don't care that much if they're delusional, it's that there is no space for other leftists in their worldview)

It is literally Bolsheviks. They don't give a fuck on the leftist's opinion and killed them all
