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.

It's critical support because it's hypocritical.

And also you get to criticize everyone who isn't supporting them!

They also talk about socialism all the time and claim to be socialists... while vehemently supporting the capitalistic, kleptocratic mess that Russian currently is.
