I know that the people on that subreddit are kids, but what generally is the issue with “tankies” about? Socialists support actual socialist countries, don’t believe US propaganda, and don’t support the US imperialist order. Is it basically just “western left anti-communism” out straight of Blackshirts and Reds, or more general USian political illiteracy (i.e. I’m a socialist like Norway shit)?
I agree with all the other comments here but I want to add one more to it.
It’s nationalism. Mostly american nationalism, but also a “western” nationalism that is basically “i support the imperial core”, aka the “international community”.
Everyone that properly gives up on nationalism and becomes an internationalist does not fall into this group’s mindset. There are internationalists that disagree with us on many things but they don’t see us with this childish analysis of good vs evil (where the US and the imperial core are on the side of good).
This nationalism that resides deep down is also a major difference between scratched libs becoming fascists vs scratched libs that do not. Also a major aspect between those who “support Ukraine”(nationalism) and those who want an end to the war.
Yes, Tankies, who famously sport shaved heads and red suspenders and also listen to white supremacist music. Textbook tankie right there.
Edit: STOP UPBEARING ME! THIS IS NOT A GOOD COMMENT!
Ah, but you have to understand, Nazi Germany’s and the Soviet Union’s governments both did stuff, so they’re basically the same.
Don’t forget the Swastika and SS tattoos plus a MAGA hat!
This is a shitty edit of some anti-alt right cartoon from like 2015

Yeah the Vaushites are rabid there, I used to occasionally kick the hornets nest by reminding them of the loli porn and how he threatened to SA a girl who turned him down.

my favourite thing that funimation ever did was they translated “lolicon” to “paedophile” in a couple of anime
people were so angry lmaoLmao that’s literally what it means, it literally has 2 meanings, pedo material and pedo. When used to describe a person it just means pedo. That’s it. That’s literally it
The term is derived from two words roughly meaning “child sex abuse victim” and “mental disorder” as in “you have a mental disorder that makes you want to do sexual abuse of children.”
