Further proof that Tankie is just the liberal version of "SJW" or "Woke"; a meaningless buzzword to describe anything left of them.

this is the kind of take you get from people who literally never leave the internet. a man doing an extreme act of self-sacrifice for a cause he believed in (and a cause that is plainly correct)? to the average person he's a hero, but to the internet-addled liberal he's a mentally ill tankie

The only time Christ used violence was against money changers, it's just the biblically correct position

I mean, non-theology pilled christians can't easily answer you how self immolation for your truth is different from praying in the whatever garden before going to be crucified. Jesus knew he would die, he was afraid and he still did it, difference is negligible

In the US they tend to be so indoctrinated on the ideology of rugged individualism (owe nothing to society, thus owed nothing) that concepts like martyrdom are just meaningless words they read in religious text. Extremely ironic because it's a concept that is near universal to all religions.

I kind of hope that seeing this discourse play out in real time will make some of the self-proclaimed anarchists&leftists who love to call others tankies realize where their favourite left-bashing term comes from and how it gets utilized.

[-] [email protected] 68 points 6 months ago

Tankie has been used against anti-imperialist anarchists and demsocs for years, if they still haven't caught on to it it's unlikely they'll realize now.

Sudden urge to go check on the 196 paedophiles and see how they're handling the sacrifice of Aaron Bushnell

[-] [email protected] 52 points 6 months ago

To be frank I would rather check in on 0 pedophiles than 196...

There is not a single blip about it, they're too busy posting unfunny garbage and chaser memes.

Edit: Looks like there was a single thread that didn't get much traction. The sub is not as political as it used to be (unless there's a chance to be sectarian against 'tankies') so that's to be expected.

when the revolution comes we will need special places where some people have to be educated in order to rethink some of their perceptions about the world, a re-education, if you will

also, these places should be comfortable and inviting, open spaces, perhaps like a camp? I haven't worked out the details yet

[-] [email protected] 59 points 6 months ago

as an ML who through circumstance has largely organized with anarchists for real world praxis in my area... yeah, real anarchists are indistinguishable from tankies to a lib. my anarchist comrades have questions about china (none really about vietnam/cuba, they read news) and they are largely fair and the ones that are misdirected they trust me to explain. left unity is entirely possible, our differences are not irreconcilable. while I believe that a revolution which lasts must necessarily create a dictatorship of the proletariat to correct the developmental course, the anarchist expression must persist in its nonviolent form as a conscience and reminder that a stateless and classless society is our ultimate goal

Calling anyone left wing an Anarchist was the “Tankie” of the 19th and early 20th century. We’ve just come full circle.

Oh no! How could this have happened? Brb gonna go disavow all my anarchist friends over the support of relevant and contemporary Soviet Leader Iosif Steelin.

[-] [email protected] 49 points 6 months ago

The guy did a pretty much objectively brave and noble self-sacrifice in protest of a genocide our nation is arming, but his posts, man! His posts!

Also this is a strong piece of evidence for the definition of tankie as "traitor to the US / The West."

the what now? can someone fill me in on what happened?

[-] [email protected] 54 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Aaron Bushnell, a former airforce-turned anarchist, self-immolated himself to protest Israeli embassy's support of genocide in Gaza...

Typical western 'leftist' with pro-west foreign policy calls him a mentally-ill tankie for supposedly supporting Hamas or any other anti-western force which is 'unreasonably' authoritarian... (I have not heard of his support for anti-west forces, let alone Hamas)
