    I was actually just joking but forgot my /s.

    Poe’s law. A lot of people on here genuinely think there aren’t any tankies, despite the fact that a toe dip in most of these threads will show people with such delightful takes as “Authoritarian is a word made up to discredit communists” and “Soviet Secret Police were just a necessary defense against reactionaries!”

      “Soviet Secret Police were just a necessary defense against reactionaries!”

      How is that any different from pretending tankies support the Antebellum South?

      You liberals sure are suspiciously enthusiastic when it comes to the exact same hyperbolic propaganda.
