It really depends who you’re talking about really.

fxomt and cryptagion are quite far from tankies.

I’ve posted plenty of anti-tankie memes in !flippanarchy@lemmy.dbzer0.com and got comments of support from dbzer0 himself.

So I think your whole characterisation is lacking a bit of nuance.

Like here’s how dbzer0 reacted to my anti-uyghur genocide denial meme https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/19511364

Anyways. This convo doesn’t seem particularly fruitful. So I’m gonna disengage I think.

Fxomt upvotes Uyghur genocide denial and openly praises Soviet apologists and Hexbear.

Many of the outright genocide-denialist comments there are highly upvoted.

Here's an experiment for you then. Go into a post that's critical of tankies or communsim and ping Devals, Cowabee, Diva or the multitude of tankies. See what happens. Watch as your instance bends over for them.

Ping them. I already made a nice, attractive Tiananmen Square massacre. They love denying that, or rather you also love denying that, being a tankie.

The tiananmen square massacre happened.

no shit it happened. Go and convince your tankie ilk that it happened and that China was authoritarian.
