A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

If you think that, then I don't think you understand the term Tankies. Tankies are apologists for the genocides and wrongdoings of Communist regimes.
Just wanting welfare or healthcare doesn't come anywhere near the level needed to be called a Tankie.
So like defending Mao, the USSR and praising and recommending the Black Panthers, who met with government of north korea and defended juche thought then. Like, literally everything I just linked to above?
Lmao what part of "my job is to overthrow capitalism" do you not understand?
