Ahaha. His comment he quoted is already dumb. Ok, so China leashes their capitalists? Doesn't he notice the problem in this statement? Why are there even still capitalists in China? Under socialism the class differences need to be dismantled. Capitalists class stop to exist. It's not about leashing them. Lmao. By stating that they still exist but under the control of the state, he kind of comes close to the conclusion that it's state capitalism. But he doesn't notice it.
tankieslop
Your community for poking fun at the bullshit tankies say and spread.
Rules:
-
No tankie talking points. That includes the classics (denial of genocide of Uyghurs, denial of ML dictator's crimes, campism, calling everyone you disagree with a liberal or CIA etc.) and general shit opinions (general genocide denial, antisemitism, racism, queerphobia, etc.)
-
MLs are not communists. They never actually worked towards it and there are some who don't even define it as a stateless, classless, egalitarian society. So MLs shouldn't be called communists in the first place. Calling hating MLs anticommunism will probably expose you as either a tankie or a right winger, both of which aren't welcome here.
-
Right-wingers, fash, nazis, nazbols etc. are not welcome! Right wing talking points (such as anti-woke, anti-queer, speaking favorably of far right figures, being anti-antifa etc.) will get you banned pretty quickly.
-
Please respect people's pronouns. Deliberately misgendering people repeatedly is going to lead you to have issues with the mods. Defending misgendering will get you banned.
-
No brigading. People caught brigading in this comm will be banned. Also we oppose brigading in other comms. Keep the discussions and stuff within the comm.
-
On near-east topics: Nakba is an established fact. The (ongoing) Palestinian genocide is a fact. Israel commits crimes against Palestinians. No anti-Arab (such as Palestinians and Druze) sentiments allowed (it falls under racism anyways). In regards to Israel, do not dehumanize civilians. Saying shit like "there are no civilians in Israel/Palestine" will get you permabanned.
-
Be kind to one another. Try to deescalate any fights.
Content guidance:
Anti-ML memes, screenshots and humor are allowed.
For general discussion threads please ask.
If there is demand, we can do a open discussion thread once a month. But it will get locked if in escalates into a dumpster fire.
These people have never even been to China lmao
"eliminated homelessness and poverty" by making it illegal to be homeless and poor?
In Vietnam they sell red T-shirts with the hammer and sickle on them, in shops for tourists. Just like that one. They're everywhere although no one ever wears them, they're just for souvenirs.
Here is me wearing mine, chilling in a hammock in Laos

The colour reproduction isn't great, digital cameras were bad back then. It was a nice deep red.
How many tankies on Lemmy have ever owned and worn a hammer and sickle tshirt??! In public, multiple times?! Not many, if any!
IRL I'm closer to a real communist than they will ever be, lol
Lol, Prolewiki is one of the worst places to get information. It is Conservapedia levels of wrong.
