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

We only hate tankies here, with Marx and Kropotkin both being (positively) recommended reading in the sidebar of the comm.
If you associate with the hammer-and-sickle but don't consider yourself a supporter of that kind of tankie Soviet throwback nonsense, sorry for catching you in the crossfire, but symbols often end up with multiple 'shorthand' meanings.
