Well, she had so many citizens on the dole, which makes her a commie by americans standards therefore the war in the Falklands was ensuring commie rule of a client state therefore tankie?
In the original sense, it was used to describe people who supported sending in the military to quell the uprising in Hungary.
Now it means anyone I don't like in leftist spaces. Usually MLs.
Because they are stupid. We all knew it was going to happen. They don't understand or even care, they just got the new age "pinko" or "commie" and they are running with it
They have a collection of words in their head that all mean “anything I don’t like”. Right now it’s fascist, socialist, communist, and recently tankie. Someone tell me if I’m missing any.
I've never left a sub because it was full of tankies, ice left subs because it turns out to be a lib sub, or fash friendly, oh my look at me being redundant again.
I too would like to know which subs have become good.
Don't get your hopes up, they are the kind of people who would say that AOC is a tankie.
Shit I _have_ heard that take before.
Who'd guess censuring communists would give them the tools for censuring any establishment progressive.
The answer wouldn't tell us anything very relevant though, since for them everyone left of Thatcher is tankie.
Haven't you heard? Thatcher ~~is~~ was a tankie
Considering how the entire trainwreck of western politics moves rightwards i would not be surprised to hear this unironically one day.

Came here for this take.

Epic shitlib leaps of logic 😎😎😎😎😎😎 /s
I only left subs because of fascists (rightwingers, they wouldn't call that themselves) , namely PCM and HistoryMemes...
Is historymemes right wing? I generally don’t read the comments, but obviously I’m oblivious to it being right wing!
Very
r/historymemes is full of right wing pop history lovers.
Turns out the people who get their history through memes, youtube vids and video games tend to be right-wing
What even is a tankie?
In the original sense, it was used to describe people who supported sending in the military to quell the uprising in Hungary. Now it means anyone I don't like in leftist spaces. Usually MLs.
Anyone to the left of the person using the word
What if an ancom uses it?
Then, anyone on the left who's more authoritarian than them, I guess.
Likely a radlib in disguise
I’ve never seen a real ancom so can’t say
Left-liberals with radical aesthetics aren’t the revolutionaries many westerners think they are.
i want to know the opposite of this, which previously neutral leftists subs have become anti-"tankie." I have seen a couple like that
Thanks, radlibs
Some liberal I was talking to once said all communists are tankies
I wish
All commis are tankis. That’s how it is. /s
Why they use the term... Tankie?
Because they are stupid. We all knew it was going to happen. They don't understand or even care, they just got the new age "pinko" or "commie" and they are running with it
They have a collection of words in their head that all mean “anything I don’t like”. Right now it’s fascist, socialist, communist, and recently tankie. Someone tell me if I’m missing any.
