Left unity: Working together despite disagreements, and engaging in discourse to make compromises and reach agreements
Tankie left unity: Nobody disagrees with me
(That’s my real problem with tankies. I don’t care that much if they’re delusional, it’s that there is no space for other leftists in their worldview)
It is literally Bolsheviks. They don’t give a fuck on the leftist’s opinion and killed them all
Nobody has killed more leftists than tankies.
Also same tankies will cancel anyone more libertarian than Stalin for the slightest “problematic” behavior.
lol
Pug jesus your tankie bashing memes are boring trash, your attacks on voices of people who are simply against genocide are lazy, and your digs aren’t even that funny because most normal english speaking people are too busy trying to keep their lives together under late stage capitalism to in this time of ALL times care about your weird fear/obsession with Tankies, of which most english speaking people even if they didn’t have more pressing matters to worry about don’t give a shit about because for them it is like listening to someone rant about snapping turtles while they are dying of dehydration stranded hundreds of miles from the nearest puddle big enough to jam a turtle in.
Does your ISP charge per sentence or something?
That’s a good one lol
Oh look, exhibit A!

Also not sure why being against Uyghur genocide is so different than being against Palestinian genocide, but I guess criticizing people for supporting genocide is only kosher if it’s one of the BAD genocides, unlike the ones supported by red fascists.
Funny thing. A while back I brought up Trump and the Kurds and heard the same thign; they deserved it.
I would never say any group deserves genocide, period.
End of story.

I have no control over China, I am from the US, so it is very VERY different because almost every single bomb dropped in Gaza was gleefully given by my country to Israel.
I have no control over China,
I mean, considering the slave labor from Uyghur concentration camps is an ongoing issue with regards to American consumers funding genocide, not sure that’s as true as you want it to be.
I am from the US, so it is very VERY different because almost every single bomb dropped in Gaza was gleefully given by my country to Israel.
So you wouldn’t criticize someone who supported or was indifferent to Palestinian genocide, but wasn’t from the US?
You are going to casually equate the culpability of giving a client state unlimited bombs and diplomatic cover with buying a single product in a country as a consumer from another powerful peer trading country that isn’t strictly an ally… with a straight face?
So you wouldn’t criticize someone who supported or was indifferent to Palestinian genocide, but wasn’t from the US?
Clearly I expect more from the citizens that reside in countries maintaining and materially supporting genocide.

I’m going to casually equate funding genocide with funding genocide, yes. Especially since it’s far more likely that you’ve bought something made with Uyghur slave labor than it is that you’ve voted for more funding for Israeli genocidaires.
We are not discussing “Is the US more culpable, as a polity, for one than the other”. The US is obviously more culpable in the ongoing genocide of Palestinians. We are discussing you, and what you object to, and, apparently, what genocides you think it is inappropriate even for others to object to.

It’s a simple question.

I live inside a giant cancerous military complex which has focused its attention on the Palestinian Genocide not including that context here is wildly disengenous and I honestly am at a loss of how to respond.

Your excuse was, and I quote:
I have no control over China,
You established that the basis for you being positive about being vocal about Palestinian genocide, but overwhelmingly negative about being vocal about Uyghur genocide, was that one you, personally, could influence by your existence in a polity (the USA), and one you could not (China).
When confronted with the fact that you have, as an individual, probably more culpability with regards to funding the Uyghur genocide than the Palestinian genocide, you spit out some vague excuse about how addressing your argument on your argument’s own terms is ‘wildly disengenous[sic]’?
And again, you refuse to answer:
So you wouldn’t criticize someone who supported or was indifferent to Palestinian genocide, but wasn’t from the US?
It’s a simple question.
Imagine being against genocide yet supporting Russia’s.
you should’ve said china, not russia
Nope don’t support genocide there either :)
What?? I didn’t say anything to you???
Oh sorry the comment I replied to was referencing you, sorry, thought it was tankies in general
I don’t? Who does?
A lot of people on this very platform who are the very same that are commonly described as „tankies“.
Specifics please
You’ve got a search bar and fingers don’t ya? Look some shit up before you go to bat for the fucking tankies.
I am not going to bat for Tankies, I am asking this little club of Tankie haters to point me in some sustantiative directions (NOT vague anecdotes) that backup the active and sustained hatred this group has for Tankies that motivates y’all to share memes about hating them quite frequently.
If I was complaining about a group this much and had built my identity around it, I would worry people would start to think I was full of shit and trying to get everyone worried about something as a distraction from much more awful, pressing forces.
I am not going to bat for Tankies
Goes to bat for Tankies
Do you often think in such conspiratorial ways? You may need a therapist.

“had built my identity around it”
what
… we’re on fucking Lemmy, of all places. There are tankies here, on this collection of sites.
Are you really saying you’ve never taken a dip in to Lemmygrad or Hexbear, or even just .ml?
LOL
What.
Boring trash is a good way to describe PugJesus.
Lmfao pug has done more for this site than you’ll ever do for your life goals bud, crawl on back to your echo chamber
This just in: Local Tankie strays from echo chamber, lashes out at dissent they cannot censor
