MODERATORS
Socialists are not tankies, and tankies are not socialists (despite often claiming otherwise).
"tankie" is pejorative term used by fascists and libs for Socialists and Communists. the people who use the term tankie unironically often denounce many or all existing Socialist states (Cuba, China, DPRK, etc) as "authoritarian".
Everybody should denounce the DPRK.
there is nuance
I denounce every single nation state past present and future. These nations divide the working class against ourselves. Fuck them all.
Because the Capitalists and billionaires told you to?
Because I have eyes.
Really? You've been to DPRK? Surely you'd be able to refute these claims then.
I'm not wasting my time with that bullshit.
No it isn't. It's a pejorative term for fake leftists who do not have regard for human life even though that is supposed to be the only concern they have. Sure, it might get overused or incorrectly applied on this platform. But that's because we've seen so many damn true tankies.
Its clear how liberals call themselves leftists and real leftists as tankies, "regard for human life" is not a marxist position, its a moral position and marxism is not moralism, its materialism and deals with real stuff affecting lives scientifically. You dont know anything about the left, you are a liberal.
You're right. Karl marx gave you a license to murder and so your conscience can be clean. /s
You're a murderous tankie. Now are you happy that I assumed more than you told me also? Don't expect another reply you absolute fraud (who is likely 19). No one gives a shit what you think is leftist. If you claim your goal is to free people then you're a liar if you think getting there requires murder.
Liberals murdered countless people during french revolution to free them, you dumbfucks live in an ideal world and then proceed to call others "utopian", no you daft, the rich and powerful (mostly libs) are already killing people as we speak. If our enemy has no conscience you cant deal with them in peace.
Edit: You are a lib, accept it and move on, you dont know that leftists were never non violent type, be it anarchist or marxists, they were all violent, thats what the left is, I know it doesnt fit your moral standard but it is what it is.
It's a pejorative for what you perceive as fake leftists, but in actuality are just the group of people that support the DPRK, PRC, Cuba, Vietnam, and Laos. You perceive this support as a disregard for human life, because you view these countries negatively. The actual base of what makes a tankie is support for these socialist countries, though, your opinion on them is not the definition. In any case, by your definition the Black Panther Party were fake leftists with no regard for human life:
In reality, tankies are just the socialists that support the actuality of existing revolution, the Black Panthers being predecessors to the modern tankie in America.
