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 or atrocity denial

We allow posts about tankie behavior, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion. Please redirect any Fediverse tankie-posts to !MeanwhileOnGrad@sh.itjust.works to avoid bringing drama to Piefed.social

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

Thanks for sharing that, and for the kind words. Same to you - remember you aren't alone and your feelings, whatever they may be, are totally valid. I've had several years of therapy, which did help a lot, and I'd really recommend it, but yeah... I did actually try to tell adults about it at the time and I wasn't believed and it just fundamentally broke something inside me in a way that feels irreperable. If I share something about it and someone doubts me I immediately go into full blown panic fight/flight mode. It's horrible.

Anyways, thanks for the chat, and much love to you, I wish you all the best <3
