they are a legitimate threat to freedom and to anti-authoritarian leftists,
Chaser:
we shouldn't allow these people to exist in the internet free

Tanks are inherently, like, super freakin' rad. idk why anyone would ever think it is an effective insult lol i wish i was in a tank right now (or at least one of those cool 8-wheeled gun carrier/APC thingies)
Now I just reply to them that I'm an adult who wears a diaper and I hate tankies too. No matter what Stalin Big Spoon tantrum follows, I just wholesale agree with it as an adult wearing a diaper.
This is unfair to all our ABDL comrades
It's not a fetish thing. I just feel safer, like tankie disinformation can't reach me if I'm wearing my diaper. I can sit there in my diaper and support Ukraine in peace.
Tank is not an offensive weapon anymore.
I'm not going to stop calling tankies red fascists because words don't have meanings they only have emotions and I'm very upset at them
Love how this all relies on the belief that posting is praxis, and that by posting "tankie" you are saving the world from a future unspecified global dictator.
I think they are a legitimate threat to freedom
Lol. Feel like you should be prioritizing the legislators taking away your freedom and not some guy with a Stalin profile picture making fun of Europeans for buying marked up Russian oil from India
Bringing back memories of "the just stop killing people you fucking dicks" meme that would surface on reddit over a decade ago.
Left of Bernie is far too generous. I've seen Trumpsters and even other liberals called tankies by internet libs for not supporting nuking Russia. More like left of Reagan, Thatcher, and Himmler.
If you are more concerned with "authoritarian" (read: "practical") leftism than you are with actual nazis then you have my utmost disrespect.
Not to be that guy, but
*reclaim
These people probably also use hand sanitizer and antibiotics 100% of the time
Fun-fact, using anti-bacterial hand wash all the time is not only harmful to your skin and presumably the environment, it is also redundant (because soap does all the work anyway), and may result in the development of anti-microbial resistant bacteria.
It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
