Loving the anti-tankie memes, establishing this community to be based af
- Happy to be of service. Hopefully once we've posted enough of these tankies will stop going into the comments to spread genocide denial and authoritarian apologia.
  
  Laughter is the best medicine in the sense that it's poison to things that are harmful.
- Anti-tankie memes and anti-nazi memes. Y'all are alright. ^_
- Sorry to ask. I guess I'm one of the lucky 10,000 today, but what is a Tankie?
  
  Generally someone who makes justifications and/or excuses for totalitarian communist regimes and their atrocities.
  
  It came from still supporting Stalin after he sent tanks into a rebelling territory.
  
  They are Stalinists and Maoists who refuse to admit any wrongdoing by communist leaders. They are pretty prevalent on lemmy. For some reason they are typically pro Russia regarding Ukraine. Nostalgia maybe? lol
  
  Auth left fascists. Stalin/mauist sympathizers. Think of the polar extreme opposite of authoritarian right.
  
  Read things on this tankie instance to learn lemmygrad.ml
I installed birdsite recently and actually saw tankies for the first time in my life.

Sweet Krolm, the Rat God, what bullshit do they post.

Shit like "If it was a soviet 'crime' that means it wasn't a crime at all"
- You should hear what they have to say about the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact. Apparently failing to stop the nazis is worse than actively assisting them in conquering and oppressing Poland.
  
  You don't think they made up for it a little with 8 million+ dead soldiers fighting the Nazis? And ya kno, getting to Berlin first and ending the European theater of WWII?
  
  Fun fact: Mentioning the Nazi-Soviet pact is a Federal crime in Russia today.

- Larpers.
