Elect: to select by vote for an office, position, or membership. by Merriam Dictionary

I thought voting “doesn’t work?” Are you telling his logic isn’t even consistent by his own standards.

This is the same instance sheltering the well-known troll Universal Monk.

The tankies communities quickly collapse when challenged first Hexbear now Vegantheoryclub. It’s almost as if their foundation is weak.

    “using tanks to suppress Hungarian fascists makes me a tankie???”

    Yes, supporting using tanks to suppress Hungarian leftist revolutionaries, the literal event which spawned the term tankie, makes a person a tankie.

      I don’t think they were saying they wanted to use tanks to suppress Hungarian fascists. They’re saying that they’re being accused of wanting to suppress Hungarian fascists (?), just because what they actually said was that they don’t like America.

      I can’t really make head or tail of the whole thing. Just wanted to point out that I think you might have misread that one part.

        Ah, that interpretation makes sense. Repeating the canard about Hungarian revolutionaries being fascists, I think, made me interpret it in a less generous light.

          Yeah, on the overall judgement, I think I agree with you still. I read some of the links. They’re off their rocker. I was trying to see about the vote-rigging thing, but I stopped caring before I got to it.
