    Tankie takes on Tibet is also hilarious. Imperialism bad until it’s red imperialism, then it’s good!

    She claims she’s an anarchist but never actually advocates for anarchism, hates the anarchist instance, and simps for China and the USSR.

    I think she lies to deflect blame about her true intentions.

        And she sent me a DM about this comment 13 days later.

        She says she’s an anarchist and that since I don’t think she is, I somehow also don’t think she’s trans? When I’ve used her pronouns and defended trans people regularly?

        Maybe I’d consider her an anarchist if she… Advocated for anarchism, and didn’t post from .ml, Hexbear, defending China and Stalin.

        Or maybe “jokes” about killing people with icepicks like Stalin ordered Trotsky to be killed.

    As if the Diva person knows Chinese or has ever lived there (or even visited).

    If it was russia or China starving people in Gaza, tankie roach would claim that “genocide isn’t happening”, “the BIA is seeding fake reports about starvation!” and “this is the best deradicalization program in history!”.

    What a bunch of lying, disgusting degenerates.

    Tankies made me realize how messed up politics can be

    Sure they have irrational beliefs but I’ve also talked to people who have rational ones but defend and identify with them in a irrational way.

    In short, politics is about belief. Anything against that belief tends to be taken as a personal attack rather than valid criticism.
