tankies also tend to have eleven heads all aflame, all of them advertising raid shado legends.
Posting takes from 196 isn’t picking the low hanging fruit, it’s digging out root vegetables.
Don’t slander my potatoes like that.
Western leftism is 200 people with a self-researched mosaic of Wikipedia articles attacking and defending the actions of communists from 100 years ago until we find the One Good Leftist who never did something problematic that we can all rally behind.

the west loves martyrs and hates winners
His guitar though
Sankara must have at one point taken out his guitar at a party, and started playing the Burkinabé equivalent of wonderwall. For this, he is summarily canceled.
Cause after all, you’re my upper senegal
In case you actually don't get what I'm referring to
Sankara’s government undertook an anti-corruption initiative that the man himself fell afoul of for holding excess wealth. By capitalist standards, though, said “Excess wealth” was shockingly modest: a guitar, a refrigerator, and two bicycles.
I thought it was that he had two guitars?
Now that you mention it, I’m not sure. Anyone with more knowledge feel free to jump in.
I knew about that, but I wanted to make a joke about Burkinabé wonderwall
I can’t excuse his small beret
I can excuse the beret, but I draw the line at failing to suppress reactionaries.
Sankara was just that good 🫡
I love the parent comment:
Pro tip, leave the deprogram. It’s a tankie subreddit that often use fear tactics to make you listen to opinion pieces that will negatively affect your perception on things.
Is stuff fucked in the US? Yes. But putting yourself in a fearmongering political echo chamber just makes it so much worse. The goal of that subreddit is to make you angry and get more engagement out of you from it, not to inform you.
Do r/196 users not see the irony of first posting this and then directly following up with your own fearmongering?
How can you be a leftist who lives in the US and not be angry?

Because they know that one day Bernie will rise again and save them from fascists and us.
negatively affect your perception on things.
I can listen to Fox News, Alex Jones, or whatever reactionary shithead and not have my views change because I know the reactionary dipshit is wrong and I know why they’re wrong.
This person, on the hand, clearly hears correct opinions from “”“tankies”“”" and rather than go “Oh shit this view I hold may be incorrect I should change that,” they shutdown and call it a Chinese psyop.
My org is what these people would call “tankie” and like half of us are trans ourselves, lol
Anti-communists and just making shit up, name a more iconic duo.
Question: What is a tankie?
Answer: Anyone left of me (a centre right liberal).
communist spaces are where I feel the most welcome as a sapphic transfemby, and that’s including explicitly queer spaces that are liberal-leaning; the fuck is this person smoking
Over/under on them being a 196 /
user?Place your bets now!
What is r/196
We’re […] hostile to bigots, bootlickers, and chuds.

This person is a fucking lib, but I’ve known my share of nazbols and they’re fucking annoying. I have a friend who’s very much to the left on economics, he’s all working class this and that but goes ahead and shares a video by fucking Camille Paglia
CW TERF shit
talking about how transgender people are essentially a sign of a decadent society.
It’s maddening. It’s Paul Cockshott brain and we can do better.
Thing is, those are nazbols, not tankies. These people are immensely ignorant about social issues and history.
I know dedicated MLs who are good on almost everything, then come out with the shittiest takes related to trans people
Well then fight to kick them out of your spaces :)
I got into it with someone who was posting Joti Brauer bullshit with the excuse that “some trans people might want to listen to her and learn”
Like…no, fuck you? Do you not see how that’s an issue?
Proud of you, comrade

The cia said it so it must be true.
everyone is asking a lot of questions that are already answered by my purge me daddy tshirt
teehee

Yea I’m a tankie, I believe all people that use the word “tankie” as a thought terminating pejorative should be thrown in an El Salavadorian prison.
Real question.
The fucking “ideological forefathers” of communism didn’t think the same fucking thing about gay/trans people as the “ideological forefathers” of anything? It was a disease, isn’t that the consensus of the scientific community at the time?
The ideological forefathers of modern Communism (Karl Marx, Engels, Max stirner, freurbach) were German materialists would would be considered too radical on social issues by 90% of western “socialists”. Some of these Mfs straight up didn’t believe that morality was real.
Marx would probably look at people injecting hormones and ask for some samples to experiment. Engels would be excited to study advancements in gender theory (my goat practically founded the field). Stirner would try to open an only fans, and somehow end up going into debt.

LOL
Some of these Mfs straight up didn’t believe that morality was real.
To be fair, Max Stirner was just a tulpa Engels created to fuck with Marx.
