What is a tankie?

Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes or their allies. More specifically, the term has been applied to those who express support for one-party Marxist–Leninist socialist republics, whether contemporary or historical.

    .world does this all the time though, especially if you criticize Israel or Biden (or other CIA projects)

      This would also be deeply problematic. I’ve seen it posted elsewhere, and asked the same thing:

      Can you back this assertion up with any proof?

      Edit: they can’t, they’re just insulting people with disabilities and don’t like they got called for it.

        Yeah, I’ve had comments deleted and have seen others deleted that criticized Israel or that criticized Biden’s support of Israel.

        So my own eyes have shown me that this is true. My own eyes have also shown me that .world is run by mods who push an agenda that conforms with the CIAs goals of domestic control over the US population. Which, if I wanted to read that midwit drivel, then I would’ve stayed on Reddit.

          Your comments get deleted because you seem to think autism is a derogatory to attack people with.

              I looked at your history: you were banned for calling people autistic as an insult, among other things.

              There’s literally zero obligation for me to verify anything to you, and my identity doesn’t have anything to do with the conversation at hand.

                Just report the ableism and move on. This person seems to think that everyone is a CIA operative and that autism is an insult.

                  Yeah, I figured that out after a little bit of interaction, but I prefer to give the other the benefit of the doubt when i start any conversation.
