Went both looking for fellow tankies and seeing who I should be blocking on Mastodon by looking at the hashtag #tankies.
It gave me brain damage and I also found a few of these "lemmy is made by tankies, ewww can't use it"-posts that I had never seen before. So sharing these for our mutual enjoyment:
Also just the general vibe of the posts with this tag is just so hostile. We really live rent free in these peoples heads. Interesting how so many of these were ukraine flag or isntreal flag profiles too, also a few anne applebaum replies, because of course.
The vibe is pretty much whatever this drivel is by a true communism understander:
Not to be too sectarian but left-wing politics on mastodon is totally dominated by Epic Western Tech Job Anarchists who think China is doing a colonialism on Hong Kong. But it isn't Orientialist to hold this view because all states are invalid and people should be free of them. Why do they focus on this particular example? A mystery.
I like the term Anarcho-NATOist for these people.
Also known as NATO-leftists
i think anarcho-bidenist works too lol
