Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Rules:

  1. No bigotry of any kind.
  2. No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
  3. No genocide denial

We allow posts about tankie behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

Curious about non-tankie leftism? If you've got a little patience for 19th century academic style, let a little Marx and Kropotkin be your primer!

Marx's Communist Manifesto, short and accessible! Highly recommended if you haven't read it

Kropotkin's Conquest Of Bread

Selected works of Marx

means she had access to up to 16x the amount Bernie sanders had access to.

jfc, you are repeatedly demonstrating that you didn't read or understand the article, or the issue at hand, in favor of some weird conspiracy that I'm sure all your internet buddies have asspatted you for parroting.

I’m sure it’s legal for the CCP to choose the nominees as well. Does not make either of these right.

Even if we took your bizarre misreading of events at face value, "The DNC funded one candidate over another during an election" and "The state chooses who the population is allowed to vote for" are fucking miles away from each other.

Also, sorry, saying “we’re not better than China” and saying “just saying we’re not perfect” are… so… different?

Yes. Those two things are very different. Anyone with a basic level of literacy would understand that.
