Dunking on Tankies from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
Rules:
- No bigotry of any kind.
- No tankies or right-wingers. Liberals are allowed so long as they are aware of this
- 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

What an absolute lib take to make. Violence is a necessity for successful class struggle.
Read "Reflections on Violence" by Georges Sorel. Or actually look at the history of revolutions.
I realize now I'm in the wrong community. Thought it was either a satirical ML place or an anarchist one. But nope it's a brain-dead lib place. I'm out.
I don't think your views would be welcome in anarchist spaces either lol...
Violence is necessary but mass murder of different viewpoints isn't that kind of violence.
Are you gonna keep the death penalty for any dissenting opinions after the revolution? How very anarchist
