The guy did a pretty much objectively brave and noble self-sacrifice in protest of a genocide our nation is arming, but his posts, man! His posts!

Also this is a strong piece of evidence for the definition of tankie as "traitor to the US / The West."

In current day online discourse that's exactly what it's used for.

I'm glad you think the same because everyone I've talked to has had shitty things to say about it

Yeah I was talking IRL. I tried to talk to this ex Navy guy I work with who is kind of an anti-commie dipshit but also hates some of the right aspects of capitalism and is nice enough to do shit like bring me a fucking flag from the DDR but unfortunately his only response was to go "what a freak" and focus on how mentally ill the guy must have been. Then I tried to talk to a comrade about it and it was just more of this "what a fucking waste so fucking stupid he should have fragged a CO" type shit. Like, fuck.
