anti-communism is always fascist. When you engage in “tankie punching” you engage in fascist anti-communism

all “right wing opinions” are dogshit

Yes, seriously. Liberals love vaguely coded moralisms and ideals, but they never specify what they mean systematically. America is more “authoritarian” by any definition I can conceive due to its hundreds year history of slavery, imperialist war and mass incarceration than any other country on earth

America is the most authoritarian nation in human history

They have the highest incarceration rate of all time, and have destroyed the sovereignty of billions of people

probably not, it’s too online and embarrassing an they’ve already built up enough propaganda around “communist” and “authoritarian” to drop those terms. Mainstream Liberals love being taken seriously. It’s only online they will lower themselves.

The average lib who uses tankie has no idea of its origins, and it’s origins are now so irrelevant as it has nothing to do with the groups that are labeled. Only liberals bring up the Hungary thing instead of discussing how the term is used in modern context

That “authoritarian putting down of a revolution” was the squashing of anti-Semitic rightwing pogroms and mobs. Good riddance.

Every nation state in existence is authoritarian, the different is towards who. You are still deep in Liberal dogma

Nope, you will get called a tankie if you support Palestine. Tankies are generally anti imperialist war while the squishier social Democrat types are pro-war. Tankie authoritarians were against WW1 while the “lib left” all voted along nationalist lines

Yeah I’m a tankie

generally it vaguely means “communists” as well as “anti-imperialists”, with the caveat that left communists are excluded as a separate thing
