  You have a very warped view of what Socialists believe in.

    Socialists believe in a real try at social equality. Tankies believe you must murder people or at least ignore large amounts of sufferer to force it in one fell swoop.

    I’m talking specifically about tankies, you know that kind of people who worship the likes of Putin and Xi and root for Hamas and the Houthis.

      “tankie” is pejorative term used by fascists and libs for Socialists and Communists. the people who use the term tankie unironically often denounce many or all existing Socialist states (Cuba, China, DPRK, etc) as “authoritarian”.

      I repeat: You have a very warped view of what Socialists believe in.

    Socialists are not tankies, and tankies are not socialists (despite often claiming otherwise).

        No it isn’t. It’s a pejorative term for fake leftists who do not have regard for human life even though that is supposed to be the only concern they have. Sure, it might get overused or incorrectly applied on this platform. But that’s because we’ve seen so many damn true tankies.
