Get in here losers
We’re dunking on everything
Aahaha these fuckin losers, these nerds get a load of this
What is a Tankie? The term tankie has seen several shifts in its connotation over the years. Originally, it was a pejorative label for communists who supported the Soviet Union’s interventions in Hungary and Czechoslovakia. Yet, its contemporary application is much broader. Today, the term refers not only to pro-Soviet hardliners but also to those who back China’s policies on matters such as the Uyghur genocide and the Hong Kong protests. A recent study by Petterson portrays tankies as: “regard[ing] past and current socialist systems as legitimate attempts at creating communism, and thus have not distanced themselves from Stalin, China etc.”
Just pathetic. What is this CIA-ass website? I’ve never seen or heard of it before.
Anyway, extremism is when you take a principled stance against verifiable, undeniable genocide

My problem is the amount of heavy lifting done by that “etc.”. If you don’t want to be an authoritarian tankie you have to distance yourself from a person, a country and stuff like that.
Yes please distance yourself from me… and my dog… and from space travel as the USSR pioniered that… and Liaka why not she was a Soviet dog… Also Tetris, that was a soviet game so you have to hate that… um am I missing anything?
Cell phones, they must cease using Comrade Kupriyanovich’s scary communist invention

New political compass dropped
At least it put a liberal on the right, where it belongs.
No Nazis on this map, though. Trash.
explores online spaces where modern tankies gather and spread their extremist ideology
I am vomittting extremistly.
Fucking nazi fucks. Imagine thinking GenZedong is extreme. The liberal encounters someone with beliefs and convictions. They cannot comprehend it. Their world shatters in to a kaleidescope of possibility. Horrified, shaken, they cling to the only thing they know; change is impossible and anyone who wants to change anything is insane and evil.
This idea is strengthened by reports of r/GenZedong (a tankie subreddit) showing aggression towards Uyghurs online.
Oh gee, that sounds awful! I wonder what that was about?
“As an American, I am very proud of working for the US government in Guantanamo…”
Oh my god, how little self-awareness can a person have? Accusing China of having secret concentration camps while proudly declaring employment at a known, verified torture facility.
I stg every time I check the receipts on “far-left hate speech” it’s in response to like, “Hi, my name is Nazi McFedstein and I love torturing minorities.” How hard is it to make a wrecker account in a leftist space and then cite your own account saying something fucked up? They just don’t even care because they know their audience won’t follow the links because it fits their confirmation bias.
lol I remember right after we federated there were tons of people complaining about getting banned from here. They’d complain about dog piling, about how they’re getting harassed, how they were just talking normally and didn’t do anything wrong and were suddenly banned. And you’d look at the modlog and it was always something transphobic or racist they said, then reiterated multiple times
Oh yeah they’d post a meme with no context and get thousands of upvotes and then you check the modlog and it’s
god i hated that time but also loved it. these
were incensed at being banned for ‘doing nothing’
Tech companies must recognise and respond to the adeptness of groups like tankies in evading moderation efforts. Developing advanced content moderation tools that can detect and mitigate the spread of extremist rhetoric, irrespective of its political orientation, should be a priority. Collaborative endeavours between researchers and tech platforms can lead to the development of more robust and unbiased moderation systems.
HALT CITIZEN, YOUR POST DOES NOT SUPPORT THE NEOLIBERAL CENTRIST NARRATIVE, YOUR FICO SCORE HAS BEEN REDUCED BY 100 POINTS
lol the only way that they’d get away with this is if liberals try to convince everyone that class discrimination against the rich is bigotry on the level of racism or sexism. I guess they’ve already tried this. Hexbear was created after reddit banned violent rhetoric against slave owners.
They’d have to set up a framework where wanting a violent revolution against the capitalists is extremist, but calmly rationally talking about the need to evict poor people from their homes isn’t extremist.

They already have this part down
