Hope y’all are happy with NSPM-7…
Edit: thanks for the down votes, can’t wait for the mods here to delete this, sorry for getting it off my chest, I guess y’all will be happy with the ‘tankies’ being rounded up by a fascist state…

Not just a communist. A tankie is a person who says they like leftist policy and ideals but then go on to honor authoritarians who used leftist language to secure their power. See: leninism, maoism, all the fools constantly praising China while crapping on the US, all the fools sucking off the USSR even though it was never socialist…
They’re generally immature and under-educated buffoons who think they like leftist policy but still have such a pathetically tiny understanding of authority, governance, and policy that they’ll praise authoritarians in one breath and claim to actually be an anarchist in the next.
My 30 year old son told me the same thing. Asked me when I will grow up
I love getting called uneducated by people who used to hold the same position as I did in the past. The only reason I don’t still believe what they do, is because of my critical thinking skills and access to a library card…
It took me 40 years of reading thousands of books and even more newspaper articles to get to where I am now.
And yet somehow those supposed critical thinking skills and that access to a library card apparently completely failed to clue you in to the simple fact that communism and authoritarianism are mutually exclusive.
Umm no, I actually read theory and primary sources, not just capitalist propaganda and hearsay, nice try though…
Care to share those titles?
the communist manifesto What is to be done The state and revolution the principles of communism
Despite what you say it is still internet slang for a commie, facts don’t care about your feelings…
Problem here is the tankies so derided here have feelings that don’t care about facts.
These are folks who consider China, N. Korea, and Russia to be ideal havens of the workers, regardless of any contrasting data.
I’ve never once heard a tankie espouse those ideas except in regards to China, which is a haven for workers compared to the USA…
