For idolizing the soviet union and the people's republic of china, who have done some very evil things. Tankies always try to undermine the sins of authoritarian regimes. They keep trying to instate authoritarian regimes knowing full well that they have killed so many historically.

If you want truly based leftism, try anarchism.

I've created no authoritarian regimes by giving food to homeless people. It was basically just unpaid charity work covered in red paint.

People's ideas are fluid anyway. I made a lot of leftists into tankies by just being nice and tolerant. I've seen tankies become anarchists because they're surrounded by them. I never succeeded at anything, and neither did they sadly. I wish they had. It was really nice helping eachother. I've never had so many friends. We should all become activists because it gives us so many friends.

It was really nice and I wish more people were like that online. In real life that's how it is.
