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 or atrocity denial
We allow posts about tankie behavior, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion. Please redirect any Fediverse tankie-posts to !MeanwhileOnGrad@sh.itjust.works to avoid bringing drama to Piefed.social
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

Luckily, this isn't a competition and it's okay to hate all genocidal tyrants equally
Yeah, I mean, the numbers are just an indication of how much opportunity they had to massacre people.
It's not like there's a big ethical gap between someone who will kill 5 million and someone who'll kill 10 million. At that point, you'll just keep going until someone stops you.
Seems like there was a competition at the time though with how bad they all were!
