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

You can definitely trust those same people to run a capitalist system instead.
Why does saying one thing doesn’t work, mean I’m a lover of the thing you hate? Why are you an extremist?
Y'know it's possible to dislike 2 things at once?
Classic whataboutism.
That's a false dichotomy, there are other options than textbook communism and unregulated capitalism
