Bruh i literally identify as a tankie im not naive enough to think we can vote away the oppression of the ruling class lmao
I don't care about the ruling class. What I do care about is how cultish delusional people like yourself threaten our brothers and sisters.
How do i threaten your brothers and sisters? Are they landlords or Billionaires?
No, but tankies literally killed most that didn't agree with their new bourgeoisie. They weren't landlords, billionaires or any other ownership class. They were fellow proletariat.
If you think you must fight to displace the bourgeoisie. Why would you rush to replace them with a new bourgeoisie. Whom you would kill all who opposed. I'd say the things you haven't been saying are pretty damning. But so is much of what you've said. I'll give you some credit for at least not being superficially accelerationist. Feint praise, but best I can offer.
That's in stark contrast to the statement of the meme lmao
At least you admit it.
You know that's not a good thing, right?
They're probably a teenager, it's a harmless phase and it'll pass. No western tankie has effected anything of consequence since... probably Kim Philby?
Wish that were so, but, Putin bootlickers like Jackson Hinkle (married his FSB honey trap), Jimmy Dore, twice convicted pedophile Scott Ritter, et cetera, are all doing real damage by spreading disinformation and hatred, perverting democracy, against helping victims of aggression in Ukraine and Syria.
What, in your view, makes you a tankie? And what do you think people mean when they use the term critically?
