    I’m saying the racist is the op who is also an asshole.

    Go though their history and it’s pretty clear they are one

        I think you missed the context where they said that the “racist” aspect was based on OP’s overall comment history, not this post or comments within in particular.

                As I said if you dont think any of their comments are them being racist nothing I link too is going to change your mind.

                Yeah the American simping is a massive red flag and if you don’t think blaming every nation for our issues isn’t racist idk what to tell you

                a video of a tank flattening a protester who stood in their way

                Is he talking about “Tank Man” from the famous photograph? That guy was never run over or “flattened” and there are videos of the incident showing him talking to the guy operating the tank and going on his way.

                There’s a report of 11 people being crushed outside of the square (Liubukou) while running away. There is not video of this.

                nationwide unrest across China which resulted in millions of deaths as the CCP used military directly on its own citizens

                Millions did not die either, that’s an especially bold claim. The actual protest caused somewhere from hundreds to one thousand deaths and thousands of wounded. The unrest afterwards does not have a death toll that I can find, Wikipedia only mentions people dying by train.

                Also the term “tankies” does not come from that incident. It comes from those who defend the Soviet use of tanks to suppress the Hungarian Revolution of 1956.

                Their main choice of weapon is pretending to be promoters of communism, anarchism, and liberation of minorities standing against the evil corruption of capitalism

                The rest just seems like an unhinged rant against leftists, all disguised as hating tankies. The racist part is bolded by me. There’s very little truth in what you quoted.

                This poster has a lot of takes I disagree with, that’s all I will comment on about their post history.

                    Then the poster should use better material then, lying about a historical event is not a good look.

                    I think it is racist to assume every leftist is a secret tankie originating from another country. That they are secret Chinese or Russian spies or whatever. But we do not have to agree on this. We can agree to disagree.
