Same fuckwit energy as “Israel is murdering Palestinians to protect Palestinian LGBT rights”, but bootlickers like this never make the connection between the Israeli genocide of Palestine and any of their favorite PEOPLE’S genocides.

Also, claiming that the Taliban, formed half a decade after the Soviet invasion and recruiting primarily from young Pashtun religious students in Pakistan, was actually a successor of the Mujahedeen they literally fought a civil war against, fucking lmao.

not perfect

change things too quickly

If I had a nickel for every time they’ve said this about any one of their idols, I’d have a shitload of nickels.

If you had a nickel for every time they said that, you’d be a WEALTHY KULAK CLASS TRAITOR in need of deportation to Siberia!

What is a Tankie?

Basic Rules:

Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. — Basically, don’t be a dick.

Hate-Speech — You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.

Apologia — (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether it be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.

Revisionism — No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users, as it handwaves their extremism.

Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post, rather than engaging in arguments that lack mutual agreement.

Brigading/Trolling — If you’re here because this community was linked in another thread, please refrain from maliciously voting, commenting, or manipulating the post in any way. This includes alt accounts. All votes are public, and if you are found to be brigading, you will be banned. Good-faith and honest communication is an exception.

Tankies can explain their views, but may be criticised or challenged for them. Any minor infraction of the rules may result in a warning and possibly a temporary ban.

You’ll be warned if you’re violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically last only 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction doubles the duration. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.
