Went both looking for fellow tankies and seeing who I should be blocking on Mastodon by looking at the hashtag #tankies.

It gave me brain damage and I also found a few of these “lemmy is made by tankies, ewww can’t use it”-posts that I had never seen before. So sharing these for our mutual enjoyment:

Also just the general vibe of the posts with this tag is just so hostile. We really live rent free in these peoples heads. Interesting how so many of these were ukraine flag or isntreal flag profiles too, also a few anne applebaum replies, because of course.

The vibe is pretty much whatever this drivel is by a true communism understander:

      It is far more important to read non-fiction. A well-learned person is a person who understands the nature of the real world, how it works, and the real history of how we got to where we are.

      Human civilization quite literally stands on the precipice of extinction. Choose wisely.

      I guess reading theory and history isn’t enough to keep someone from being a lib.
