see above on the limits of the phrase tankie. libs call us that because it’s easier for them to write someone off and continue feeling superior than it is to develop an actual understanding of marxism. I don’t personally shitpost to antagonize, but if I think someone is just fucking around doing plausibly deniable race science then I’m not going to actually make an effort to help them understand.
