I’m not sure I’ve seen any evidence of it existing though, is it just a Boogeyman, or so something that happened a while back? An in joke of some sort?

    Tankie now means the same as Nazi — “a person with a political view I don’t like”.

    There are actual neo-Nazis — yes, I mean people who venerate Hitler, use Nazi Party symbols, advocate antisemitism and genocide — actively involved in politics in many countries, including the US, Germany, and Russia. Do you deny this?

      Which part of the parent comment implied that there aren’t actual Nazis?

      I’ve noticed this interrogative style more and more in my runs in with the woke, both offline and online.

      So my question to you is — what the fuck do you think you’re doing?

      This doesn’t make you look strong or confident. It makes you sound like a soyboy.

        What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

        Using “woke” as a negative and using the term “soyboy” at all are both huge red flags.

        Gives off “alpha male” incel vibes.

          As Wilhelm Reich noticed back in the '40s, many fascists are psychologically incapable of consensual sexual relations.

        If someone claimed that people just say “theft” to mean “transactions I don’t like”, that would be denying the existence of actual theft.

        If someone claimed that people just say “slavery” to mean “jobs I don’t like”, that would be denying the existence of actual slavery.

        Same goes here.

        Pointing out denialism is usually only a problem to the people engaged in it, and the wrongdoers they’re defending.
