It's wild that liberals can't see through the rhetorical trick of "tankie". There was maybe a month where it fooled me- this fringe group of extremists are supporting something too far. But then you critically analyse hexbear, the most tankie forum I know of, and we just want mass transit and the basic right to self-actualisation. r/Chapotraphouse was just my neighbours saying they deserve the same shit I deserve and being honest about the structural barriers to that. The moment I saw what tankies were advocating for and the organisational reasons why, it became the bare minimum standard for taking someone seriously as an adult. Anticommunists inherently choose fascism.
If I were to perceive someone as tankie(bad) it would likely be ultras. They already have a name, though.
This comes solely from the association in my mind with MoreTankieChapo discord which was full of "there is no AES" china bad ultras.
Nothing liberals do surprises me anymore. Once you realize that liberals are just Nazis that will lie to your face about being a good person, even as they pull the trigger to kill you, it all makes sense.
That's unfair. Some of them might hand the gun to a woman before you get executed to make female participation closer to 50/50.
It's the critical support and anti-imperialist stuff that seems to confuse them the most. I think it completely breaks their brain to prioritize problems and take them one at a time, assessing situations based on current material conditions but with an eye forward to a future socialist world. Except for the US - they can have this kind of naunce for the US and it's politicians for some reason, but not other governments or people.
