Comment on .ml has got to be the only place on earth where I'd get downvoted for a comment like this
T00l_shed@lemmy.world 2 days agoAcknowledging that tankie is a pejorative for those who support socialists states would be incorrect. I am defending communists, just not tankies. Im a little sad that you cant seem to untie the two from one another :(

Nah, tankie is a pejorative for those that support existing socialist states, which applies to the overwhelming majority of communists. Trying to untie them is just a way to pretend you don’t oppose communism and thus save face on a platform with lots of leftists.

Yes. You are entirely correct, if everything you said was inverted. Im glad we agree
Cowbee@lemmy.ml 2 days ago
Nah it’s correct as it is.

Yes I am correct as it is. Thank you again!
