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

Libjerk is legitimate, if distasteful in its scope (the sidebar noting even such figures as Bernie Sanders as 'libs', which is, at the very least, attacking people for taking society closer to the direction one wants it to go). There's a long history of conflict between liberals, people whom some leftists call liberals, and radical leftists.

Why would you react negatively to Tankiejerk if you're not a fucking Tankie?
