Can someone who justifies russian imperialism and promotes russian propaganda copytext be considered a tankie? :)

In all seriousness, Chomsky is not tankie.

That being said, what's with the association with US oligarchs involved with abuse of minors and happy photos with US authoritarians?

Chomsky is anti-Russia too, what are you talking about?

Answer my question first: were there any “tankies” on Epstein’s plane? Chomsky isn't one, so name one.

I don't know, I am guessing not.

Think hard about why that is.

You don't need think hard about it.

At any rate whatever your trying to say is not really in context of my initial shitpost.

Those that support Russia aren't actually left wing they are just claiming to be. So I guess it depends on the definition of tankie.

I remember you, you were the one calling for a genocide of Russia and calling any one opposed a tankie

[–] phar@lemmy.world -5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I never called anyone a tankie and I said Russia should be split up and given to it's neighbors. You should work on your reading comprehension skills, my friend.

You literally said that Russia "should be wiped off the map".
