“Tankie” is just a pejorative for those that uphold socialist countries as legitimate, and oppose the US empire. Communists are not anywhere close to MAGA, and pretending they are is sophistry.
It absolutely is, it’s the McCarthyian vision of a spooky scary communist that wants to gobble up all of the babies. It’s used against Marxists and anti-imperialists to terminate discussion.
If their problem wasn’t with the communism but instead with the hatred they get, then Hexbear.net is good, which uses an allow-list for federation. It’s a very chill instance to use.
Considering “tankie” is just a pejorative for those who uphold socialism and oppose the US Empire, the “far right, conservative shite the tankies are smoking” is just Marxist theory.

ROFL, About 7 in 10 of my interactions with .ml are either positive or neutral
The vocal side of hexbear is almost completely unhinged.
Calling leftists “almost completely unhinged” is more of a self-tell than anything.
I mean…they didn’t call “leftist” unhinged, they specified a specific group.
Hexbear does not equate to all leftist, and leftism does not equate to Hexbear.
The overwhelming majority of the time people have issues with Hexbear, it’s the leftism.
Tankies are so far from left they’re basically MAGA.

That’s not what tankie means, but nice try.

Haha so wrong but please keep posting and voting on this post so people can see how tankies really are.
I think you’re doing a great job of showing how anti-communists are, personally.
Ah yes, that should fix it.
Oh shoot I broke the rule in the meme!
Shutting out the voices of leftists is the rule in the meme? Sounds like we should break that.
Sorry cowbee, youve got no power here. I thought I had you blocked already. Leftist is fine, I draw the line at tankie. Blocked at instigator.
I don’t have “power” anywhere. Having issues with Marxists is still generally a bad thing that should be a broken rule.
nice try tankie.

Yep, Marxism is communist.
Yes exactly.
Not whatever that far right, conservative shite the tankies are smoking.
