Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and 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 denial

We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi and rational, leftist discussion. (shitposts are fine, but please keep it sat-sunday. You won't get banned or removed though)

For a more general community !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works is recommended.

Counterrevolutionary: Let me see... it means "Anyone that disagrees with me or thinks i shouldn't become a god"

Well it's written right there, don't see why i should listen to counterrevolutionary scum instead!

Mao had a lot of people in the West fooled while in power, because he was able to hide the atrocities. People carried around the Little Red Book as part of Western counterculture at the time. They thought it contained wise words from an effective leader.

People have no excuse now.
