Libs thinking we’re on their side, until the point we reject electoralism and US imperialist propaganda. Then label as as “tankies”.

Campists thinking we’re on their side until the point we reject “AES” and “left unity”. Then label as a “liberals”.

Anarchists are clearly the rare species of “liberal tankie” 😆

    Honestly it makes me understand why tankies exist. I don’t agree with them, but I get it. Just like I get capitalism. They both suck but they’re both right for different reasons.

      Lemmy has just ruined the word tankie but if you are referring to the more militant/dogmatic MLs then I would agree that I think a search for “realistic” solutions drives some of the more concerning/ardent believers.
