The Democratic People's Republic of Tankiejerk

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

Bro you’re getting downvoted but you’re 100% correct. People love to shit on Democrats here while hand-waving Republican faults as “they’re both the same party”. Super convenient for the party in power to not be held accountable.

It was legitimately funny to me, it was honestly top-tier mental gymnastics to think Libjerk is anything other than Tankies parodying Tankiejerk. The gall for them to come here and claim some other political identity was being defensive over Tankiejerk is incredible.
